I think indeed it depends a lot on the person and what they want to achieve with their target language. I learnt English at school the boring way but then I discovered that I can enjoy reading or watching things on the internet (as you mentioned) and write well enough, though I might make preposition mistakes and talking with my kid I realised I might often not know how to describe movement or actions because I basically always communicated in a more academic English :) So, yeah conversations with teachers I think would be a great way to improve in cases like mine, to target those needs more efficiently 🙂
Yes, I believe everyone can do things on their own to improve their English, but at the same time, a teacher can help make the process faster and more efficient for many people.

Great reflection on how to move forward with your language learning ...
Thank you!
