I am legally blind and was always. Visual leaner. I gesture a lot with my hands still when I explaining something. I also still ask for a lot of details so I can visual places and people.

do you imagine you coould be able to learn math all over again? more specifically geomotry? like if you forgot everything about it. As if you were learning it for the first time

I don't see why not. There are blocks, raised pens, braille, loads of ways to 'learn' the meaning of the words for shapes name. Geometry was actually my favorite part of math since it made the most sense to me. I can't think of anything off the top of my head that would make geometry unlearnable

Learning styles have been repeatedly debunked, though it doesn't seem to stop people from beleiving in the idea: https://www.psychologicalscience.org/news/releases/learning-styles-debunked-there-is-no-evidence-supporting-auditory-and-visual-learning-psychologists-say.html

Math, though, is indeed harder to learn nonvisually, though certainly not impossible.
