[Yoshisaur]

[Fhyn_K]

There was this unsavory person I went to school with that I swore talked mad mess about me in his native language Korean. So I taught myself the language over the course of a year so that I can curse him out before graduation. I eavesdropped onto his conversation and it turned out he was saying nice things about me all along. We live together now haha.

 

[Squidward]

I taught myself how to draw, play the guitar (even though I suck lol), and understand basic Russian.

 

[lars708]

The only ''useful'' thing I can think of is my english, 100% self-taught.

Besides that there are useless things such as moving my ears back and forth lmao

 

[Rizies]

I self taught myself to knit. I've made several blankets and hats.

I am also learning and taking over maintaining a website for a small business.

 

[Brookie]

I taught myself how to roller skate, do my hair(not rlly a skill? o.o), scrapbook, cook,

 

[Corrie]

I got into website making when I was 12 and taught myself HTML and CSS.

 

[shrekluvsme]

I taught myself how to write ^^ and how to draw! Drawing was the hard one. In 5th grade I would make myself draw for an hour each day -it was torturous! Always made me very stressed out, but really worth it in the end

I've literally taught myself every creative ability I have. Photoshop, 3D animation software, 3D modelling, sculpting, digital painting, music production, etc. I'm really grateful.

 

[DarkDesertFox]

Photoshop. Although, I have picked up a good amount of tricks from people on YouTube and even a user from here helped me understand the animation a little better. I also would say creative thinking is one of my stronger skills. I'm always trying to figure out alternative solutions to something and sometimes the answer you find is something people haven't thought of doing. That's why I love video games so much. They challenge you with a lot of creative thinking.

 

[Stalfos]

I taught myself to play the guitar. It's not so hard once you get into it.

 

[tybalt_cake]

taught myself to speak english , ever since i was 6.

 

[ApolloJusticeAC]

I taught myself to guitar.

 

[Millysaurusrexjr]

Wait, what counts as teaching oneself? Does it count if you use the internet (youtube, tutorials, etc) and books?

If so, then I plan on teaching myself how to sew and do embroidery.

I know how to draw and paint but I don't know if I necessarily taught myself that, since i was in many middle school/high school art classes and went to art school

 

[visibleghost]

drawing, english to sime extent, reading too. then uhhh h idk. i cant think of nany skills i have lmao

 

[nintendofan85]

I taught myself to guitar.

I love how you put it as "to guitar".

 

[Mr. Cat]

I taught myself everything. How to play instruments, different languages, college courses, how to draw, crochet/knit, sewing... so much more I can't even think of. I absolutely can't learn from other people. I have to be alone, do research, and use trial and error.

If only I could teach myself social skills.

 

[Miii]

Yes. As a kid, I taught myself to draw, how to ride a bike, how to write with both hands, how to read backwards and upside down and as an adult I've taught myself how to crochet (and how to design patterns), sew, cook and how to rock climb. Also how to turn any animal into a cuddle fiend.
