YouTube learning is the practice of acquiring knowledge or skills through YouTube videos rather than formal education or traditional instruction.
It encompasses everything from academic subjects to practical skills like home repair, coding, or musical instruments.
The term often carries connotations of self-directed, accessible education: I learned to change my brake pads through YouTube learning.
Sometimes used dismissively to suggest superficial expertise: He thinks a few hours of YouTube learning makes him a mechanic.
