Passive listeners

I LEARNT more about mathematics when I started giving tuition in the subject.

This was so because it was I who was doing mathematics and not the student. In a tutorial exercise students are passive listeners and are happy.

Their parents too are happy as they shifted their responsibility to the tutor. Moral: never engage a tutor for your children. You are paying for keeping your children ignorant.
