I know that there are professional careers to prepare teachers and train in education, but I am referring to teaching as an art which, although it includes teaching professionals, does not include all of them and does include some non-professionals, it sounds confusing, right? It's good that we have many lines to express it more clearly.
I have always been interested in teaching others about things in which I see them confused and I think I am clear, I did not study to be an educator, however, I have completed my university studies so I have had contact with many educators throughout my life I even had to be an educator at a university for some time.
I have also had the privilege of teaching the sacred scriptures to my brothers in the faith, in fact next week I will finish teaching a course that I have been in for more than two months and I know that I have never told you about it but today it has arrived that day because what we did today has led me to the reflection that inspired this article.
Surely you will agree with me that you have ever had a teacher who apparently did not enjoy teaching or some who enjoyed it more than others and that is the point I want to touch on, there are people who feel passionate about teaching others and there are others who They only do it because it is a job responsibility, in the first case I think it is art because the artist is able to draw the teaching in the mind of his student in an almost magical way. Have you ever come across someone like that?
These types of people are always learning and teaching tirelessly because they enjoy doing it. When someone is enlightened by the information shared, they feel happiness, as if they were fulfilling the purpose for which they live.
It usually happens to me but today while the group was presenting I could notice some differences between the exhibitors and the way they taught. I also realized that when a person teaches the subject is taken more seriously than when it is taught.
The above has led me to believe that the best method to teach is to make your students try to teach you first, when they do they will give the most importance to the subject and that is when you take advantage of evaluating their level of knowledge and "polishing" the areas in which it is failing.
