Interesting, MayB. You may
be interested in an old book by B F Skinner (the psychologist)  called "The Art of Teaching and the Science of Learning".

Sassyass, I think that much depends on the timing. I think that earlier on I was not ready to teach but now I can. However, one thing I do know is that I am better to teach adults or young adults. I do not have the patience or understanding to teach children or teenagers. Thank you for your kind comment

What a wonderful compliment!
I do not believe that we all possess the gift of teaching others. It takes a special talent to pull that off. Some people are just born to teach.

What a great compliment! You should be proud of yourself. I've always thought the best teachers are the ones with passion and the ones who don't mind learning themselves. Good luck!
