I encourage you to ask the following questions: What was your learning strategy? What was the single most effective activity for you? What did you struggle with the most and how did you overcome it? If you needed to learn that skill all over again, what would you do differently? If you were in my shoes, how would you go about learning it? Is there anything else I should know? Once you have “interviewed” your friend or acquaintance, you should have a better idea of the best way to approach your learning goal.
