hmm i'd say theres nothing i learned at school that i couldnt have looked up myself.. if u arent in school currently then imo self taught is better. they didnt teach anything like compositing or special effects.. or really digital animation.. we just drew traditional which was quite fun but they really just taught the basics. i can send u some vids later that could help.
Edit - ok here are the vids @lionelkochanowski

Just discovered dis guy recently, he teaches stuff that i rly wanted to know but barely anyone teaches like what are those blue, red lines you see in anime studio wips
Though he uses opentoonz which is kind of hard to get into. for beginners i recommend Krita which is what i used to use - its nice but to do fancy stuff like camera stuff, sfx i'd recommend opentoonz. I used to draw in the special effects manually. Open toonz comes with sfx for animation.
