This is not a framework, but I see tremendous value in going to people who already know the skill first. At least in my experience, there's a tendency for people to start learning on their own before they feel comfortable asking questions.

Often I try to skip this (rather tedious) process and go to someone who has knowledge in the area. Often I don't need an actual 'expert' but someone who's already intermediate. Asking the right questions can speed up the learning process tremendously! In addition, many people are willing to relatively cheaply (think: a meal; cup of coffee; etc.) let you pick their brain.

I think this becomes even more valuable when having a family means that one's free time becomes an extremely scarce resource. One usually already has some experience to be able to ask the right questions to clarify generic concepts in given context. IMHO given both sides of the dialogue are on the same "wave" nothing can beat Socratic method.
