Top 10 successful self-taught individuals in history.
Throughout history, some people have used their life experiences to enhance their talents and create their ideologies, for better or worse. These individuals are sometimes called “autodidacts,” which simply means that they acquired significant knowledge and skills without the presence of a teacher or the setting of a classroom. You could argue all day about which people, alive today or long gone, qualify as the world’s “greatest learners.” But one thing is for sure: you can’t ignore the wisdom of the self-taught. Below are a list of the top 10 self-taught individuals in history.

1) Leonardo Da vinci(The Renaissance Man):
Known by all as the painter behind The Last Supper and the Mona Lisa, Leonardo da Vinci’s contributions to 15th-century Europe far exceeded his skills as an artist. He was taught basic writing, math, and reading skills, but he received no formal education.Da Vinci would later spend a decade of his life refining his artistry under the apprenticeship of Andrea del Verrocchio of Florence. Beyond this, da Vinci was entirely self-taught and created many scientific concepts and plans for inventions that never left the inside of his notebook.He scrawled many ideas that connected nature and science, most notably his invention of a 20-meter (65 ft) mechanical bat. His interest in anatomy prompted him to brilliantly produce a drawing of a flying machine that mimicked a bat.
2)Benjamin Franklin
Benjamin Franklin attended grammar school when he was 8 and he excelled in his classes. He had to leave school after his second year because his father could no longer afford to pay for it. He loved reading and writing and constantly tried to improve on his grammar and writing style. He went on to apprentice under his brother as a paper printer and while he wished to write for the paper, he was not permitted. He began submitting his letters under the pen name Silence Dogwood and his articles became very popular.Franklin was a prodigious inventor. Among his many creations were the lightning rod, glass harmonica (a glass instrument, not to be confused with the metal harmonica), Franklin stove, bifocal glasses and the flexible urinary catheter. His life and legacy of scientific and political achievement, and his status as one of America's most influential Founding Fathers, have seen Franklin honored more than two centuries after his death.
3) Frank Bender(the Recomposer)
He made facial reconstructions of the dead based on their skeletons, and of fugitives based on outdated photographs, with his reconstructions showing how they might look in the present day. The self-proclaimed “recomposer of the decomposed,” used his artistic talents to help fight crime. With zero training, he became a prominent forensic sculptor of the late 20th century and his hauntingly lifelike face sculptures helped to solve many cold cases.Prior to his calling, Bender was in the navy and spent some years as a commercial photographer. His most notable case came from the sculpture of an elusive killer, in which his clay mask of the notorious John List directly led to his arrest.What made Bender one of a kind was not only his intuition and seemingly sixth sense about the victims and their characteristics but also his optimism and passion for helping people.
4)Abraham Lincoln
Abraham Lincoln was an American statesman and lawyer who served as the 16th president of the United States from 1861 until his assassination in 1865. Lincoln led the nation through the American Civil War, the country's greatest moral, constitutional, and political crisis. Abraham Lincoln received some formal education in his youth but his schooling was only received intermittently and taught through travelling educators. His total schooling added up to less than a full year and the rest of his education was gained through self-teaching. Lincoln was a lifelong learner and an avid reader, sometimes reading and rereading many of the same books over the course of his life.
5)Albert Einstein
Albert Einstein attended primary and secondary school in Germany until his father was forced to move to Italy due to business troubles. Einstein was supposed to stay in a boarding house in Germany to finish his schooling but he felt stifled by the strict learning structure and dropped out, instead travelling to Italy to meet up with his family. He was told he would never amount to anything and his future seemed bleak but his natural talent for math and physics, combined with his passion for knowledge, proved otherwise. |
