I love teaching! It helps me come up with ways to simplify concepts and get creative with explaining them. Kids especially force that way of thinking, and then you can use those same concepts for adults and they'll be more engaged!

What are some of your favorite concepts to teach? What helps you explain them?

I like teaching the difference between for loops and while loops by having a volunteer do 5 jumping jacks, then do jumping jacks until I tell them to stop.
