I'm extremely bullish on online learning. I owe my livelihood to things I learned online.

That said, after trying countless structured courses for a variety of subjects (ranging from design to music production), I've found that my best results are from coursed created by individuals, not large companies.

Individuals who deeply understand their core topic and are financially motivated to make the best possible course, I think, are the future of learning. Not "institutions" like Coursera.
