Discussion on: Why you learn when you teach

I would like to teach because of these two reasons:

  1. Yes I believe you learn when you teach. So I wanna have a solid understanding of what I already know. Solid as I can explain what I know in a really understandable and simple form. As Einstein said, "If you can't explain it simply, you don't understand it well enough."

  2. For me, teaching is the pinnacle of every career. You had already the chance to explore every knowledge in the craft of your choice so it is then your chance to share it to people who want to take your path.

My greatest obstacle is my communication skill. I cant construct my sentences well enough for people to understand the concept I am explaining.

It seems to me your communication skill isn't lacking as badly as you believe it to be. I can understand you well from your comments.

Can you give an example of a problem you encountered?
