Brigham Young lived at a time and place when formal education was quite rare - most children learned to read and write from their parents and then were apprenticed into a career or profession. He learned to read, write, and do basic math as a child, most likely from both his mother and local school teachers when they were available. He then learned the trades of carpentry and blacksmithing to earn a living.
Although Brigham Young had very little formal education, he played a part in the founding of two universities (the University of Uah and Brigham Young University) and encouraged his children and the Mormon people to obtain as much education as they could, both through schooling and through independent study.
