this is a hard question to answer but i'm gonna give it a shot..... in my case i consider my self to be a natural switch but lean more twords my slave side. i tend to be able to switch only for my Master and tend to be submissive twords others who me and my Master play with.i don't think that being a switch is something that can be learned because if it's not in a person to switch than they should not try doing it. the reason that it's easy for me to switch is cause i have some what of a dominate personality and that helps me beable to switch.
