I’ve tried the method of taking each paragraph and boiling them down in my words, but that method isn’t fun for me to do. I’ve also asked that question, and one of the suggestions I got is “watch videos on Marxism” - I fear that they might probably be too boring and too long for me to watch. In fact, I think Marxism may be boring for me to study. Are there any ways that would make it fun, exciting and engaging because that might be the one thing missing in Marxism.


I beg to differ.
A good teacher finds a way to excite the student and stir their imagination.
I’ve learned plenty of things because I associated it with something I enjoyed.
I agree, to keep with the athlete analogy that was used earlier a teacher is like a coach.
You don’t need them really, you could put in all the work yourself and get results. But a good teacher/coach can help you set priorities, avoid common setbacks and keep you on track.
Learning something new is never easy, but that doesn’t mean you can’t make it way less difficult with help
No, a good teacher guides you. You still have to do the work.
If you don’t do the work, you learn nothing.
If you enjoy doing it, it’s not “work.”
I don’t want to get into a long argument over definitions of terms.
We can agree that effort is required, but effort can be done joyously.
You couldn’t pay anyone to match the efforts Olympic athletes, who happily do the work
