“Learn, do, teach” is one way that the learning process is made. “The ‘learn-do-teach’ cycle” was cited in print in 1977. It’s not known who originated the term.
“Learn, earn, serve” is an older and similar term.

While student-centred learn-do-teach methods, now so popular in general counsellor education programs seem to have excellent long-range benefits, students may express their preference to have the counsellor educator simply explain the content and then get onto the next act.

The owner-manager’s curve of “learn,” “do,” “teach,” and “let go” is going to repeat, but with every generation, it will repeat at a higher level.
8 June 1985, The Daily Herald (Arlington Heights, IL), “At Work” by Adele M. Scheele, sec. 2, pg. 1, col. 1:
All of us go through cycles of the great threes learning to do becoming a master at it and teaching it to others. This learn-do-teach pattern plays over and over and on higher and higher levels in the careers of the most successful people.

Brain-Based Early Learning Activities:
Connecting Theory and Practice
By Nikki Darling-Kuria
St. Paul, MN: Redleaf Press
2010
Pp. 46-47:
In fact, I am really using another one of my favorite strategies during this time: “Learn, do, teach.”
When a child learns to do something, “the thing” is introduced as an idea. Then if the child is allowed to do “the thing,” the idea begins to form a neural connection. When a child then turns around and teaches another child “the thing,” the connection is made.
