Isn't this how adults learn? (And children too, when out of the classroom.) If you want to learn something new, say how to program in Haskell, what do you do? You probably don't try to find an institution to which you pay a lot of money and which offers you in return a seat in a room along with thirty others like you in which an instructor talks to you for a few hours a week.
Instead, if you want to learn Haskell programming, you check for learning materials online and go through them at your own pace. When you get stuck, you find online forums where you can ask questions. Also, as you learn, you answer other people's questions on the forums. You are learning at your own pace but you are not isolated.
