A thought that often comes to mind is this: A teacher may make every effort to teach everything possible, but the student may or may not be able, or ready to fully understand what is being taught at the time it is taught. This, despite the teacher’s intention to give full and complete knowledge.

A student may not be able to “know” a concept until much longer after being taught and only “get it” later. This is why many practise for years and then one day realize “so, this is what sensei meant”.

Aren't the "Aha" moments worth the wait?!?

Yes sir I can not argue with that logic because it is absolutely true. Great point!

The person who succeeds is not the one who holds back, fearing failure, nor the one who never fails-but the one who moves on in spite of failure.

Not that I’ve really had that moment yet in MA, although there’s been many ah-ha moments, but it’s exactly like when my father told me some things when they was a kid, and now that I’ve got my own kids, I realize “now I understand what he was saying.”

Every night, with whatever I'm teaching, I try to give the students everything I know about the matter at hand.

Because the students deserve that from the CI!!

Imho!!

:D
