As someone who has been through every stage of education, from nursery to graduate school—on two different continents—I've had my fair share of different classroom sizes and teacher personalities.
One thing I can say, with no reservations, is that the most useful skills I possess have been learned behind closed doors, by teaching myself.
Learning how to teach yourself and direct your own learning is a life skill every person should have. No exceptions. The good news is...it's not rocket science. You can teach yourself anything, if you have the right structure and systems in place.👇🏾
