I think youtube and free resources for learning pool stuff like physics, spins, pattern play, etc are great. But for stroke building, as countless golfers have shown, by picking this tip from one guy and another tip from another guy and mashing them together....they don't always mix well. There are many different types of strokes in pool just like in golf. The difference is that in golf, everybody is aware of this and they know the cornerstone of one technique can be considered a stroke killer for another. A good insgtructor can help you navigate through the landmines of mismatched hot tips or at the very least just teach one coherent technique from A-Z where they know every component gels well.An instructor is cheating! Pool is a journey! Experiment Experiment and Experiment some more!
Lots of great free stuff out there if you search and educate yourself!

I suggest that you go ahead and exhaust the free stuff online and get a library of books before you start lessons.

On top of that, most people are actually really bad at actually doing what they think they are doing so an instructor can make very minor tweaks here and there and shave a lot of table hours off your journey towards getting there on your own (some never get there without outside help).
