I think that learning with a teacher is very effective compared to learning by ourselves. Because, when we start with a tutor, it's very easy to ask about a difficult topic, and they understand the topic very well. And if we're stuck, but we're studying by ourselves, it's very challenging because if we find some difficulty in a topic. At that time, we have to search on the internet or Google, or find related topics so that I can understand it very well by watching some YouTube videos or a course.
