Juli replies: Sure DD was a teacher at Hogwarts, but he taught 
Transfiguration, besides, LV could have easily learned the dark arts 
from books, HRH studied all by themselves before the TWT, later 
Harry taught the DA stuff he'd learned from books. So I guess it 
wouldn't have been very difficult to purchase some dark arts book 
(maybe at Knockturn Alley), or even at Hogwarts (at the library). 

He performed an AK before he was out of school (I think), because he 
was about 17 when he killed his father and his grandparents, so this 
doesn't leave much time to learn the unforgivable curses in his 
travels considering he spent all the school year at Hogwarts and 
summers at the orphanage. So for me the only option is Hogwarts, 
then after he left school he could have learned a lot more.
