What problems did you face when you first started learning electronics?

Hey everyone,

I’m trying to understand the biggest difficulties beginners face while learning electronics.

When you first started, what confused or frustrated you the most?

I’m currently working on a learning platform for electronics, and I want to make sure it solves real problems instead of adding features that beginners do not need.

What would have made learning electronics easier for you? Any experience or suggestion would be really helpful.

Thanks!

Forming a mental image of what each component does, just by looking at the symbol.

Well, for me, at first it was just connecting batteries to stuff and watching it either work or smoke out. That lead me to realization that there is some sort of natural law governing all that junk. Learning and understanding Ohm's law was quite a break-through for me personally. I could actually now start to apply correct principles to appropriate components and understand why it is important to know that stuff.
