Random Vlog - On Teaching & Explaining
Some people are great at explaining stuff. Other people suck. What distinguishes those people? And how do you get better at explaining things?
Bad ways to explain stuff:
- Using jargon
- Saying "why don't you understand that?!"
- Explaining something the same way 10 times
Good ways to explain stuff:
- What is the most often made mistake in this field? What should people avoid?
- Go back in your own mind: What was it like for you when you learned this particular thing?
- Think: How can I translate this (concept) to something the other person understands?
