Today in this blog we will explore another way to learn : self - study. This path involves learning independently, without a teacher or structured curriculum. It often relies on written or pre - recorded resources like books, online materials, educational apps, virtual games, and personal projects. Self-study can be challenging. It can be difficult to stay motivated and on track without the support of an instructor or other learners. Self-study might be suitable if learners are self-motivated, enjoy independent learning, and prefer a flexible approach.
Here's a quick look at the upsides and downsides of self - study:
Pros:
Flexibility: Learners can set their own pace, schedule, and learning environment, focus on the areas that they are most interested. 
Personalised learning: Individuals can focus on topics that interest them and tailor their learning to their own style.
Cost - typically low: Self-study can be cheaper than formal education.
Build self-discipline: Learners develop self-motivation and time-management skills.
Cons: 
Passive learning: The absence of direct instruction can lead to passive absorption of information rather than active engagement with the material.
Limited feedback / mainly self - assessment / : You’re mostly relying on yourself to know if you're on the right track.
Use and engagement: Adults and children who are motivated and disciplined learners. Engagement depends of learner motivation.
Socialisation: Self - study people might miss out on the social interaction and peer learning that happens in a traditional classroom.

It is crucial to recognise that there is no universally superior way to learn. The best approach depends on your individual learning style, preferences, and goals.
