I learned this teaching my own daughter. Teaching is a hard skill. You start with an explanation that you think works. Then you have to adjust it based on how your subject responds. Do they get it? Part? Is it not clicking? And then step out of yourself and figure out what's another way to visualize or think about the problem. A lot of it is not about being right, but being useful. Ive applied this to things you wouldn't think is teaching, like helping a friend understand why her career path isn't working out for her and steps she can take to improve it. Took an hour to figure out the bad assumption in her mind and figuring out a way around it.
