Becoming an independent learner

Are you responsible for your learning? What is English to you? Is it a subject for school? What happens with your learning when you are not at school? I ran into this idea recently. How to be an explorer of the world. while I do not believe in recipes or easy fixes, the list in the link seems quite logical.
The fact that you are the product of your life choices does not mean that you can not change them. I feel it is very important to take charge of what is happening with your education. We can't simply assume that things will automatically improve when you are older.
After reading the list of points above, we will have a discussion with your ideas and opinions. It is important that you write down some ideas you have so that you may express them more clearly.
It is very easy to not do anything or to repeat what everyone else says. If you do not like these ideas, explain why and propose your own.
