RainyDayJizz#35 Posted September 25, 2019 Share Posted September 25, 2019 Sounds like you're in upper management. Congratulations.

RainyDayJizz#35 Posted September 25, 2019 Share Posted September 25, 2019 This may or may not be a useful analogy, but being good at math got me into tutoring, and when I started I had lots of trouble explaining it and using a certain demeanor to do so. I can make people feel like I'm talking down to them cause I'm sarcastic. After a couple months questions people had became routine. In the beginning I flew through paper showing people how to do problems, and by the end I'd use maybe 2 sheets for 5 sessions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GuyBeardmane Posted September 25, 2019 Share Posted September 25, 2019 Teaching is a beast, but it's a good start that you're second guessing yourself. It's better to be in the state of realizing you don't know everything, because that will make you more effective at teaching what you do know, and as you learn things you'll be more eager to share and teach those things too.
