In my opinion, thanks to the Internet you can get theoretical knowledge almost in every sphere. And even become a professional unless the chosen sphere requires some specific practice. For example, for becoming a    health care worker. But if you want to be a developer or translator, all you need is self-discipline and high motivation.

This is the good thing in our new world, you don't really need school since there is an internet, you don't need to have a class room since you have your own PC and you do not need to have a teacher since you have a lot of sites to visit with a lot of MOOCs (massively online open course).

Maybe the problem here is the certificate since in our country, you still need the certificate to apply to better jobs.

Remember that education is what's left after training. And it does not matter how you got knowledge in higher education or yourself. The question is only the effectiveness of assimilation and application in practice. They say to be an expert in any field is enough to read 10 good articles. And of course understand them.

With the internet access and all the ressources that we can find on it, it's becoming easier to learn by yourself. If you want to learn playing guitar for example or coding HTML, why not.
If you are searching for very specific topic, self education has its limits

Is it possible to become a specialist studying by yourself?

Yes, it's possible. I think a lot of people here gained their expertise by themselves, or are in the process of doing so. Especially now that universities and c companies are putting lectures and courses online for free -- and with the increasing availability of information in general -- it is more possible than ever to educate yourself.

self-education as the true appliance of learning and as absorbing everything that you yourself encounter in the world. Self-education could possibly be learning about a specific TV series at your own time, because you are teaching yourself about a subject which you have had no formal education and you will also become an autodidact in the subject of that particular TV series

Self study is a quick way to learn those
Who want to pursue what they want in life,
Or those who want to reach.

 For those of us who have been using our computers, smartphones and tablets solely for the purposes of entertainment, it's time for an important realization: they are the ultimate tools for growth and self-education. Public libraries are also a huge source of knowledge. Wink Wink Wink Wink Wink

With the situation at the universities and colleges in our country, and personal financial worries, we as parents truly hope that self-education will be the way to go forward. But as said before, it depends on the area of expertise you wish to study in. I would NOT trust a doctor or a pilot who educated himself!

Self education is possible specially when you're used to be alone or rather wanted to study alone than to be with the group, it's a discipline, patient and courage one can inherent to, in order to achieved this kind of education but you still need someone from time to time to guide or mentor you if you have question, and also there's internet for you to inquire if you need further information... although this is good but you still need to study in school or university to develop your social skill, personality, talents as well.

If you have a hard work, self confidence that you can learn with yourself. Well we can say yes, thru online internet ,YouTube, and other website might help us to learn everything. If you don't have any gadgets or computer you can learn also by reading books , textbooks, magazine etc.

Self education is the best. But i guess there should be someone there to show the right path and to clarify any unclear things. It is the best way of education.
And also there should be a good basic education since the childhood age.

It is possible however is not easy and self education does not give you the relevant certificate, you can know a lot but if you want to venture into any industry even though you have the knowledge they might not want to employ you due to the lacking of certificate.

Practically it can happen, for example a musician who has talent from when they were a child, even though they did not study in music school the person would be a specialist in musik, by self education  and often practice will be  sharpen the talent.

Self-education is somethig that very hard to start and make everything right because of laziness and lack of learning and studying skills. Google can't make everything.

With the internet, youtube, pdfs, software etc. i think it is possible but will depend on the subject matter and your access to equipment/resources, and your dedication and ability. I assume by yourself means you can interact with others online still.

But those sites or things can be fix to know who are you? But how fo others do to create study from their selves?  You can also know your by your own way.  You are you, you know who are you and also you what image can you represent at.

I can say that those are helpfuls but it is hard to study if you get resources from internets.  Internet has a full of lies that you have met.

Yes it is still possible to educate ourselves. There are manual materials in the internet already that depends on the course that we would want to learn or to take. I believe that through our eagerness, we would have more opportunities to learn. Through researches, by reading and watching educational materials, we would gain more knowledge if we want to.
