Thomas Jefferson was a very remarkable man who started learning very early in life and never stopped.

 

At 5, began studying under his cousin's tutor (comm: this is one reason I homschool our kids – they excel).

At 9, studied Latin, Greek and French.

At 14, studied classical literature and additional languages.

At 16, entered the College of William and Mary. Also could write in Greek with one hand while writing the same in Latin with the other.
