Do you learn best by listening to a teacher, or by studying on your own?

Answer 1

I think that I learned things both ways...

When I was little, I wanted so much to learn to read and write that I alone grabbed books and forced myself to read, and I asked my parents for help, and I did learn to read and write before any of the other kids in my class.
After that, I have investigated several things that I find interesting on my own, and I have learned a lot by myself.

But I do think that a teacher is very important in education, because no one can learn everything by themselves, and a teacher can instruct you and solve your doubts if you have any.

So I think I have learned equally by myself and by a teacher

Answer 2

I can learn by studying on my own & have done so with many subjects, but I prefer having an instructor at least for the introduction & to be there to clarify if I don't understand something.

So, although I'm usually without a teacher, I would choose to have one if I could.

Answer 3

Studying on my own, I have done many online and correspondence courses and do quite well in them. Plus I find some teachers don't have a clue what they are teaching and should be fired!

Answer 4

listening to the teacher, but after i forget it too, so then i have to study on my own.

Answer 5

Studying on my own, my teacher has this droning voice that bounds me to forget whatever they're saying and daydream.

Answer 6

by listening to the teacher.

Answer 7

on my own but if its a really good teacher then that helps

Answer 8

Depends on the subject.

In general, I like to study on my own but be part of a discussion.

Answer 9

study on own

Answer 10

both- sometimes I need a good teacher to show me the way and then I take it from there
