Empower Your Curiosity: Learn with Matt!
My experience learning with Matt was like this: Imagine you’re reading a text that’s engaging and enjoyable, but over your head in several ways. Then, imagine you can turn to an expert sitting right next to you who will answer any question you have, no matter how big or small. When you do follow your curiosity and ask a question about the text, the person sitting next to you responds with enthusiasm and the right level of detail to keep you engaged. Then, you turn back to your text to keep learning until you have another question. In my mind, that’s an ideal learning situation, and that’s what learning from Matt is like. Matt helped me to add structure and clarity to a personal learning project I had been working on. Before I started working with Matt, I felt like I was drowning in new information. In our first session, he helped me organize my ideas and my learning path. In our second session, he helped me understand the history and context of the material. And in the third session, he brought me along on a deep dive on the material, then tied everything back to the big picture context of the subject. Working with Matt was a very fun learning experience. If you love to learn, and especially if you have a personal learning project that you’re working on, I can’t recommend Matt highly enough.
