It is one thing to be able to practice what you've learnt and it is another to be able to pass on the knowledge to other people. When it comes to the skills you've got, do you find it easier teaching others about it?
 
I don't necessarily teach my skillset, but I offer a lot of support in regards to it. Coding is my primary skill, I help a lot of people on message boards with it.

I find it easy to offer support and help others learn the skills that I’m experienced in.
 
I find that I can learn quickly when I want to learn something new myself but I have also found that when I try to teach someone else the same thing that I learned, it's not so easy.

The way I either learned or was taught things is not always a way I feel I can then teach others the same way and I find I can confuse myself when trying to teach others something I learned.

A couple of my friends have said that teaching is never easy, and I totally agree with them. To teach is very difficult, and it would always take a longer period of time before anyone can master how to pass any knowledge to another person.
 
I am good at my skills and I can teach them. Yes, it will be hard from the beginning but at the verge being acquaintance with the people that I am teaching, it will get easier and simple.
 
I enjoy teaching people how to play poker, and get better. I usually explain my hands to my buddies when I'm playing, and tell them why I made certain moves.

I teach others my skills and I find it as one of the great ways to master my own skills as well . I break down complex concepts into simple steps and that has really helped me to solidify my understanding.

I completely agree with you on teaching other ls because it really helps to clarify my own thought process. I've actually created video tutorials, blog series, and even hosted webinars to teach people before.

Teaching actually forces me to stay up-to-date with the industry developments. What I've learned is that teaching other people also inspired me too..
 
I know a lot of people who are making mony from teaching their skills, and I know I will actually make money if I do decide to teach graphic designing, but when it comes to teaching others this skill, I find it abit hard since i was mostly self taught. For years I had to find my way around various software and watching various videos, I don't know most official terms used for teaching.
 
I am not confident in my teaching skills, so I prefer not to teach. However, I can offer assistance by providing information about tools, websites, and other resources for learning. If I have extensive knowledge and experience in a specific area, I would be open to teaching others for free.
