Learning from students via teaching

Submitted on 13 December, 2009 - 16:54

Dear Alan

I liked the way you're describing teaching and learning. It's fantastic!

You have raised a very important question I am asked very often by young teachers: How do we learn from our learners? Is it really possible? Aren't we teachers who teach them? You managed to do it in a very simple way :-). Thanks for this!

I would like you to give an answer to this other question:

What is necessary for a teacher (a specific quality or anything else) to be able to learn from students/learners while teaching?

Thank you in advance. Warmest wishes from Ukraine,

Zira
