Skills & Hobbies

Skills and hobbies points to places for learning a craft, a game, or an instrument at your own pace. Entries range from drawing courses and photography lessons to chess and Go servers, music practice aids, and study guides for a specific pursuit. They differ in how they teach, since some walk through a structured course while others are forums and reference pages that grew from a community. When you pick one, look at the level it assumes, whether feedback comes from an instructor or from other learners, and how much of the material is free before you commit time.
