About

Hello everyone! I'm thrilled to see so many of you interested in this! CO-TUTORS I am not the only tutor who will be leading the series. G Tarun has been doing most of the brainstorming with me, and as the series goes on we expect the format to lean more towards discussion with other tutors and learners joining to talk. WHO CAN BE AN AUTODIDACT Self-directed learning has very little to do with the actual material you are studying, so it doesn't matter whether you are advanced or in a traditional school environment or studying for exams. This is us sharing the skills on how for you to manage your own learning, not what to learn. Anyone and everyone are welcome! A FEW EXAMPLE TOPICS The science behind how your brain learns best (and worst!). How to find a community of like-minded learners. How to use active recall and cycled practice while studying. How to build your own curriculum and stick to it. Our experiences & self-directed learning journeys and what we have picked up along the way Expect fun slides, rambled discussions, Pomodoro timers, and the occasional pet popping into the camera frame!

About the Tutor

My name is Karinna ✨ I'm a college sophomore, and I love learning about biostatistics, unique applications of math, and immunology. My hobbies include crocheting, reading, and jigsaw puzzles. I enjoy introducing students to the fun and interesting parts of normally boring topics. I also love to share my experiences with homeschooling and self-directed learning. Feel free to message me if you have questions!
