| I disagree completely. You don't need to be an "old hand" at anything to teach someone else. What is required is a solid understanding of the subject and an ability to convey the meaning and ensure that the pupil understands, spotting their errors and helping them to correct them along the way.
That has nothing to do with experience, as in all walks of life. I'm sure you've been taught by many people who had less experience than you on things like IT courses, but their understanding of the subject and teaching ability makes them a better teacher than the "know it all" old fart that sits in the corner and grunts. |
