This is mostly true for peer-to-peer teaching, but it's not necessarily true when the teacher and student have different goals, or when there's a huge gap in skill level.

That's challenging for the teacher, who can learn to teach better.

Not many can put the most esoteric ideas into simple terms like Feynman, but we can aspire to.

Hi Shawn, I love reading your content. Maybe "teacher" is a heavy word to use. But I definitely enjoy how you deliver things, and more importantly I take action from it. Thanks!
