What do people think about hiring a tutor? Of course that is only available for relatively old topics that are more experiential learning than symbolic learning.
I’ve had a lot of trouble understanding and getting good at mathematical proofs, so in the next couple of weeks, I intend to hire a tutor to teach proof skill to me.
I think that’s wise. Be sure to find a tutor who is moderately busy, and therefore reasonably indifferent to how much of his/her time you purchase. That way the tutor will not have a perverse incentive to either rush you or try to drag things out.

Good point.
