I find teaching is much less effective without someone there to learn. Part of the benefit is getting asked about things you didn’t realize were important or things that are welded into your mental models. It helps me step back at least.
Writing things down and explaining them is always good practice. It’s harder to gloss over mistakes or bad assumptions when you switch modes from “thing I’m working on” to “thing in explaining”.
- ChrisMarshallNY 7y agoYou are correct. I have found that people don't seem to like reading, these days. They prefer videos. The problem is, is that videos take a lot longer to do (effectively) than writing, and I have a face that was made for radio (and a voice that was made for silent films). Also, I have been writing (and reading voraciously) pretty much my entire life (since I was a kid), so that's the medium I use.
