========================
Hi, my name is Tina and I'm a data scientist at a FAANG company. I was pre-med studying pharmacology at the University of Toronto until I finally accepted that I would make a terrible doctor. I didn't know what to do with myself so I worked for a year as a research assistant for a bioinformatics lab where I learned how to code and became interested in data science. I then did a masters in computer science (MCIT) at the University of Pennsylvania before ending up at my current job in tech :)

[@hedge931]

Something that really helps me: learning the same topic from multiple sources. Each source fills in the gaps of the others, and repeatedly exposing yourself to an explanation of a single concept will make it feel easy once you've heard it the third or fourth time. DON'T stress about remembering every little thing, just expose yourself to the ideas a few times and understand it as well as you can (without pushing you brain too hard) each time, and they will sink in on their own. Reach for "low hanging fruit" i.e. the things that are easiest for you to understand. They build on each other, and sooner than you think, you'll be able to understand those "harder" concepts, if you just focus on all the easy ones. In a way, you only ever have to try to learn things that are easy for you to learn.

[@Dianetics.Junior]

I do this by reading different on the same topic, often at the same level of knowledge.

[@ZaItan1]

So true! Re-exposure can make learning almost inevitable, and solidifying foundations makes more advanced topics that much easier.

One of the biggest leaps that helped me is "don't talk about it". It's important to learn how to utilize energy and understanding how to store it for use later on. When we talk about things we release the energy in a non-productive way.

[@cedricg4303]

I agree & don't agree in the same time. I used to help some foreign student learning french and, just asking them where they were in their learning was putting them in the "Accountability" zone indirectly. I think that, having a little group that boost each other on those term, even if you don't learnt he same subject is really cool. Some friends have a group where, every two weeks, they show and explain what their learn to other.

Yes John.i am practicing this also,don't talk about it. I realize that I am telling others about my progress because I seek approval for my hard work. It is a way for me to get satisfaction before I have completed my work,which is a copout for myself and bad for discipline. The only satisfaction I should seek is from myself from completing my goals. 👍👍

[@johnd.5601]

@@bmejia220 It's not easy for anyone. There can come a time of confluence if you continue to move forward and accept that you can only choose the direction of the very moment that presents itself. Define your future with detail as best you can and as you progress it will become possible to refine those ideas as they materialize. Accept failure as a opportunity for you to Google a correct resolution, failure is the easiest thing to fix if you can accept you are wrong. I find it very difficult to make intelligent decisions when I find no fault in what I'm doing. It is implausible to be correct all the time. Strive for greatness and accept failure as part of the journey, love what your doing or don't do it.

[@bezimienny1146]

Honestly - thank You from the bottom of my heart. Here are my takeaways: 1. Learning just enough to make a project you are interested in. 2. Staying motivated by linking the learning with realisation of your deep needs and imaging the alternative cost. 3. Not feeling guilty of learning other stuff within the domain instead of completing a course you feel irrelevant to your goal, your project. 4. Watching lecture in double speed to grasp the general point and noting down the high-level logic instead of writing about every detail. Write concepts as a framework of connected elements and feel okay with leaving gaps in this puzzle. 5. Connecting with people around the topic, if possible. Linking your responsibility to others, to feel obligated before them. 6. Iterate the elements of learning and practically implementing the knowledge.

[@TinaHuang1]

Wow thanks so much for your kind words 😊

[@fancyAlex1993]

Agreed. Learn the concepts in 1 - 2 hours through documentation or videos then spend the remaining time in building projects. This can be in the form of courses or KZbin video or blog post. One more thing that you can do while watching this courses is to build something on your own before watching the video. Example if you are going to build a navbar, perhaps try to build it on your own first before watching the video on how to build it. If you are stuck , try to research it. If still stuck for more than 2 hours, then continue watching the video for the solution. End of the day, is the effort on exercising your brain that matters. Even if you don't solve the issue, at least you would spent time researching things and filling some gaps up in your knowledge. This has helped throughout my career as a dev.

Framework for Learn Technical Things #1 learn just enough + The problem is that there are too many resources (paradox choice). + You can’t jump from beginner to intermediate doing courses. + Don’t try to memorize or understand every detail. + Take notes but don't take too many notes. + Do not, by any means, skip exercises! + Do not feel obligated to finish a course that is not relevant for your project. + Do not be married to a single resource! #2 do a project + It doesn’t matter what’s in your head if you don’t know how to implement. + The best way do learn to implement is doing implementations. + If possible: find your project first! That's how you know you learn it. 3# ITERATE
 + choose projects to do in order to find the holes in your knowledgment, and that’s the whole point. + Find the projects that better fits the skills that you wanna learn. + Keep doing it! It’s a cyclical process. PLUS# ACCOUNTABILITY + Accountable means obligated to explain, justify, and take responsibility for one’s actions and to answer to someone, such a person with more authority. + This is even more important when you fell overwhelmed, weak and it’s must proned to give up. And that will happen! + Make a public commitment.

[@gatosandrea]

Aaah, I am a beginner but I am sooo glad that there's someone that thinks like you because for me it's the same, I think you learn better by doing projects, otherwise you'd be stuck in learning, learning, learning and that'd be and endless loop and when you'd do a project, most of the things are forgotten and then you have to do the same again.

[@janiobachmann5029]

Great advise Tina! I have to be honest and admit that I became a victim of taking lots of courses. It's really important what you said about doing projects because this will give you a more practical perspective of what you learned.

[@mercantile1803]

100% correct! Thanks! I was "trying to learn to code" for several years, but it only started to stick this year because: 1. The pre-research of knowing what coding language was used for what and what the capabilities was essential to knowing what direction(language) to focus on. 2. Some of my job developed in a direction where if I knew Python it would be much easier and I'd get better outcomes. 3. Several other side projects formed in my mind where I *needed* to know python to deliver them. 4. Instead of structured courses I just watched KZbinrs like you... it helped me build my own developer environment much better and the variety of approaches and angles helped me generalise.

[@roselynthalathara958]

[@mycabbages_]

Tina is a sage! There's such profound wisdom in her videos.

[@e-genieclimatique]

in brief: This video discusses a framework for learning technical skills more effectively and efficiently through project-based learning. The framework consists of three main steps: -learning just enough, -doing a project and iterating, -and ensuring accountability. 1. Learn just enough: Instead of getting overwhelmed by numerous resources, choose one or two introductory courses or books to learn the basic concepts and terminologies of the skill you want to acquire. It doesn't matter which course you pick, as long as it's high quality. 2. Do a project and iterate: The real learning starts with doing a project, which helps you practice real-life implementation. After completing a project, continue doing more projects to fill in the gaps in your knowledge and dive deeper into the subject matter. Learning is a cyclical process. 3. Accountability: Create consequences for yourself to push through tough times and avoid giving up. This can be achieved through introspection, identifying what truly matters to you, and creating habits to help you stay committed to your goals. An optional upgrade to the framework is to find a project first, which can help answer the question of when you've learned enough to start doing a project. This can be done by getting a job in the desired field or setting up a project with consequences that matter to you. The video emphasizes the importance of project-based learning for acquiring technical skills, focusing on implementation, and practicing to truly master a skill. The speaker shares their own experiences and provides examples of how this framework has helped them succeed in learning and applying new skills.

[@rutabega306]

Thanks gpt

[@zakozakaria]

You made it sound so easy, I wouldn't say that this is not the most efficient and yet so "logical" way to learn but yeah sticking to it and not losing your motivations is another hard task to do. After all self-learning is a big long journey still struggling to find myself in it and maintain it, if anyone can help by sharing their experiences i'd be really happy about it.

[@TinaHuang1]

haha I totally get that - it's why I do my study with me livestreams! It's how I get myself out of bed :)

[@firosuke]

Not that I have achieved what you are talking about, but ... I think the key is to spend time stepping away and letting yourself feel more deeply what things motivate you the most, and to figure those out consciously; it might need to be done more than once -- and then to try and discover (sometimes non-obvious) ways to remind yourself of those things, then make a habit to consciously look at those reminders regularly. Partly this is a kind of self-care -- deliberate, conscious effort directed towards the (hopeful) benefit of your future self. A simple example might be photo of the person we're doing those things for, on our desk; or a photo of a big belly on the fridge, if we are trying to lose weight. Or phone notifications (perhaps at slightly random times, so you don't just mindlessly cancel it every morning). But the key part is spending enough time away from the activity, perhaps on a regular basis, to appreciate what you are doing it for. I think that for some people, part of this motivation is etched into their lifetime experience; and for others, it is not so clear and we have to work towards it.

This is so helpful!!! I couldn't figure out how to actually develop and enhance my skills in the right way without taking it too hard from the beginning. But u really guided with details !! Will definitely be Accountable during this journey!! Thanks dear!!

[@studynoook]

I love your channel. You are so intelligent and you know how to explain things in a beginner friendly way! Thank you so much😄

[@kanziarahman3158]

I love how each section has its own music that differentiate one another, very detail

[@Abdullahjimmy]

You are right just noticed it

[@philipefernandino9180]

That's what we learn on Junior Enterprises (we have that on college here in Brazil). You get a real project that someone is paying for, and a deadline, and it's up to you to deliver the result wheter you know what you're doing or not 😅

If you use the practices of Agile in your daily life, you can get so much work done. I study using the Kanban board and Jira

This is the second video I've watched by you. Excellent content! Really enjoyed it. Thank you beautiful lady and have a great day!

[@TinaHuang1]

Thank you! I’m so glad you’ve enjoyed them 😊

[@johnczech7074]

@@TinaHuang1 very much so. Thank you for making them!

[@highmountdigital]

The content about self study is fantastic. This is something that has always been a struggle. Feels like there’s a bit of direction now.😊🙏

[@mstoon3891]

Thank you for sharing your experience! I am just starting my journey to the coding world! This helped me be realistic with my goals!!

[@Mov2groov360]

Thank you for making this video. It's given me lots of ideas on how I can learn Python.

[@elliotloo9198]

oh my im so glad i found your channel, im currently studying pharma science, i mean i love science, but im starting to get interested in data and finance too! I was thinking of branching out and learning something data related :D

[@toanhien494]

Finance, Data and Phar, the perfect combination for the pharm-industry. You'll surely get a job.

[@leandrofahur_]

Loved it! Simple, straightforward and powerful!!!

[@dianayoung1424]

I’m an artist, not a techie, but struggling with motivation. You had some interesting tips for learning and some great ones for involving other people in the journey. Things I had not thought how to utilize, but now see would help not only me but others. And ways to utilize resources to strengthen the journey. I’m going to see if you have some tracking info, I don’t know how to do that.

[@RLau-cb1td]

Thank you so much for your video! It is refreshing and enlightening. As a student majoring in statistics, I finally see why I suck at coding... It's because they are two totally different mindsets and learning frameworks! Also, I really want to ask what should stat students learn by themselves if they want to pursue a career as a data scientist? What kind of coding skills are most needed?

[@MrDonald911]

as a coder, I totally approve your framework :)

[@zeeshanqureshi6971]

As someone who's trying to self-study programming and software engineering, these are great tips. Thanks so much

[@bryan6374]

Awesome sharing Tina!! Learning just enough and start focusing on projects is what I need. Thank you so much 💯

[@oluwabunmiiwakin6345]

Boy o boy!!!. I always find myself trying to understand every tiny basics then i get stuck and go to another course and iterate and...now, I've seen your video. Thanks Tina

[@trishulsingh01]

Someone finally made a video about this , This is what I did with , c++ python and c#

[@ericlegostaev4243]

Hey Tina! I love how you use a ringtone sound for important points, I think its an amazing feature of your videos because it uses a habit everyone has to pull their attention back to the content if it wanders!

[@stopcheatingconsumers9779]

OMG FINALLY!! It's like the universe felt bad for me and helped me find you. This is only the second vid I've watched on your channel and I am relieved you so get the turmoil and struggle. Very insightful and helpful. I was really starting to lose it. Thank you! 😁🥰

[@-r9277]

I feel much better now Knowing I'm not Alone In this struggle!

[@Balaclava7]

When I heard "I'm gonna learn python" I thought holy shit what a coincidence, Then Naruto came up on screen and I felt personally attacked, lol

[@eylulZZ]

This is the most useful advice I've ever seen in KZbin

[@Cristi4n_Ariel]

I agree with you, project based learning from my personal experience has and is one the best approaches when it comes to learning technical things. I have learned so many things that have been out of the scope of what I initially planned to learn. I wish this was implemented more in school/colleges.
