Definition
Relating to or characteristic of self-teaching or a person who teaches themselves without formal instruction or a teacher.
Etymology
From autodidact + -ic (suffix forming adjectives). Combines Greek autos (self) + didakt- (teaching). The adjective form allowed the concept to be applied more broadly to methods, systems, and approaches.
Kelly Says
The rise of online learning platforms and YouTube tutorials has made 'autodidactic' a suddenly relevant term in education circles—what was once seen as unusual or inferior is now celebrated as a key 21st-century skill.
