Brilliant

I liked that he brought in teachers from different disciplines to give a rounder view of teaching.
He explains that everyone has to do some teaching at some point in there life and that’s why I listened. I doubt I’ll become a teacher but I want to be best equipped with skills and perspective when I’m teaching stuff to my kids or when I have to explain something to somebody in any setting.
Overall it was a great book and I’ll be re-listening to it soon: repetition!

The opposite of being a good teacher (in my opinio

I'm sorry but if he was my teacher, I would not like him. His style is rather authorative, and I never liked those teachers. I don't question his knowledge or why he is doing this course, but for me, he feels like a teacher, who goes to work, because he needs to pay his bills and not because he wants the best for his students and genuinely enjoys teaching. But this is just my opinion, I'm sure he was chosen for this course for a reason. Still interesting course, loads of good info
