Rules for Teaching
- Be kind: all else is details.
- Remember that you are not your learners…
- …that most people would rather fail than change…
- …and that ninety percent of magic consists of knowing one extra thing.
- Never teach alone.
- Never hesitate to sacrifice truth for clarity.
- Make every mistake a lesson.
- Remember that no lesson survives first contact with learners…
- …that every lesson is too short from the teacher’s point of view and too long from the learner’s…
- …and that nobody will be more excited about the lesson than you are…
