Where is the border between education and self-education? At the moment, it seems to me that the only difference is in the organization of the process of obtaining knowledge. In the atmosphere and discipline. In my experience, education is a retelling of a textbook by someone from the outside. And self-education is you read the textbook yourself.
In the world of artists (in Russia) I often notice when people refer to themselves as self-taught. A person says that he received knowledge without systematic training and without a curator. He studies books and information in the public domain.
It's just that in my opinion, a self-taught person is someone who has learned exclusively from his own experience. In self own practice. Learning from books, there is a teacher who has outlined his experience. And you automatically become his disciple by studying his writings. I think it's a big difference to be a student or self-taught. Basically, we are all students. Only some have documents confirming the training, and others do not.
