It’s a way of learning which people can think, act and pursue their own study plan autonomously. It’s NOT an arrow sense that you can only learn by yourself without outside support, you can still use it from different materials but how to use it is totally up to you.

Self-study has multiple meanings and can refer to people's ability to absorb things. It also refers to a state of mastering a skill without guidance and education.

Independent learning provide us an opportunity to digest what we have learned, because people cannot always learning things from the outside, they need time to absorb knowledge and make it to be themselves.

An opportunity for people to learn themselves, allowing them to find their shortcomings and to build a critical thinking ability.

It’s an ability that not only reflect on our own studies but also it will influence our whole life.

More involved in the learning process.
When we are student, teacher will teach you to learn knowledge, but after leaving the campus, people still need to learn. This requires self-study ability.

In February of last year, I still didn’t know much about English. But I’m going to learn English to get a great IELTS score, meanwhile I had to go to school. So every evening after dinner, I’ll concentrate on English learning. Then I got to a certain level after a period of study.
