There is a sizeable contingent in education that ascribes to the theory that learning styles is mostly bunk. The differences in outcomes for students taught with a preferred learning style vs students taught with their least preferred learning style is consistently quite small. There is also the practical consideration that teaching each student in their preferred of n teaching styles requires n times the instruction time. A large number of educators believe you get best results by just letting the teacher pick the approach to teaching they are most comfortable with.
