Be it computers or flying, I think teaching requires you to step back
and take a look at the subject from a different perspective.
I have found that the longer I worked in the field the more difficult
it was to explain the fundamentals. I'd guess that's the main reason
I think they should outlaw PHDs teaching introductory courses. :-))

I should add it's also the main reason I fly with an instructor at
least once every 6 months. Basically He goes along for a one hour
ride, then critiques the flying and we usually practice some
commercial maneuvers of shoot a bunch of approaches after the ride.

I try to make sure I'm not picking up any bad habits. OTOH it's often
difficult to find an instructor to deal specifically with Bo traits.
