You can ask Stack Exchange type sites, IRC and forums and people who practice whatever it is you are learning. If a kid learns how to find the right person, whether it be a peer or an adult, that can help them with their uncertainties and provide clarity, that is the best teacher. The job title of teacher may go away for many out there that practice their profession, but the notion of a teacher won't. Many of us get the opportunity to play that role when someone seeks out our guidance on a subject we are knowledgable and passionate about. Hopefully this continues to escalate to the point that when those pupils reach adulthood they feel the same responsibility towards younger generations when their advice, expertise and counseling is sought.
