practising and being thought is the same thing..only difference is that on one instance it is teacher and on the other a friend/native/McDonalds employee or someone else...
lets say you do not attend clasees. you read at home (tho if you do attend you also read - everyone (hopefully) does) and you have a friend with whom you practice, lets say, 1 hr a week. at that point he becomes your sensei and there goes your "im totally and only self-thought" !!!

you can say that you are self thought if you get lost in the jungle and survive for 6 month until you are found - then you can say that you are self-thought survival expert, because you had noone else but yourself to learn from.
