So now you want teach others to
fly! Even though you are now teaching others to fly, you are now going to learn
more about flying than you ever did as a student. By teaching others you will
learn how well you really know the subject matter because its one thing to learn
something but to teach others you have to posses a level of understanding beyond
the level of rote memorization. You also get a chance to observe. You get to see
the mistakes a student makes, what works and what doesn't and why these mistakes
occur.
In addition to knowing your stuff you
have to be able to transfer it from your brain to the students. Guess what? Your
brain doesn't work the same way as your students. So now you are a student of
human interaction and communications. You now have to learn new ways of
communicating. Students come from all over the world to learn how to fly, so
language can be a big barrier!
