Many think that all it takes to be a good teacher is to be the expert know-it-all.

They measure success in the amount of respect they get from colleagues and students.

These people leave other-orientedness out of the equation which is arguably even more important if we measure success in mastery instead of respect.

Really paying attention to others' blindspots instead of just reciting the facts works wonders.

One more metric to this subject:

How confidently do people ask questions from you? Or are you just making them feel dumb?

Teaching is empowerment.
