Kinaesthetic learning difficulties?

Hi all, are there kinaesthetic learners here? I can only take in the knowledge by practicing myself without the video after. Does anyone else need to do this? I'm worried because HTML seems relatively simple so far, but CSS is confusing me big time and I think it will be my biggest downfall :-(

If anyone has any words of wisdom, I'd appreciate it.

Only that you seek to learn in the way that is best for you and try not to compare yourself to others because we're all unique in the way we do things.

Also what I would say is that while the videos are a tremendous resource it;s no substitute for practice which is as you suggest, practising code challenges, working on a project of your own. Putting the techniques you learn into action. Only then will you really enforce what you've learned.

Thanks Jonathon. I'm feeling slightly sorry for myself for having to learn like this, but hopefully it'll all come natural.
