I went to a boarding school, but they never taught nothing. You just learned from other kids. And then many decades later I had to put one on ‘cos of work. I relearnt all those forgotten skills, and then some.
There’s a lot of shite on youtube too. By the time you find the useful stuff …
Also, plenty of pics and music keep getting removed all the time I rarely visit now. I hardly even know what was taken off. Not much description of whats missing.
My dad showed me, but I forgot. This is exactly how I learned and remembered how to tie a tie.

I can tie a basic four-in-hand without thinking about it, but anything else requires concentration and possibly a diagram.

That’s how I teach my kids new skills, especially origami stuff.

I mean to be honest, YouTube is a fucking amazing resource. You can learn anything using it.

Taught myself with an illustrated brochure from J.C.Penny or something.
Weirdly, I can only do it from muscle memory now. If I try to think about it too much I’m lost.

The only issue I have with YouTube videos is people give their life story before getting to the point. But if you learn by watching, its very useful.
