...that teachers are not always the best communicators. I am of the opinion that any subject a person really wants to learn about, they can become proficient in. However, advice, teaching and tutoring are all a gift and should presented as such. If I take a five dollar bill, place it in a thank you card and hand it to someone. It will be far better received and valued, then if I throw a balled...
