[RC] It's worse than I thought (was: Parelli, etc.) - k s swigart

Elizabeth Chase said:

I had a chance to visit with Linda Parelli about
the human psychology angle...and her feedback
to me was that they can teach about the horse,
what they have discovered that works... what
the human does with that information is up to
each individual's choice.

To me, this comes under the heading of "lame excuse."  If you are
touting yourself as a teacher of horsemanship (actually, as a teacher of
anything), your ability as a teacher is most properly judged by the
competence of your students at what you are teaching.

If your students don't learn from you, you are a crappy teacher.

And THAT is axiomatic.

Competent teachers find a way to present information in such a way that
their students will benefit from it and use it; they don't make excuses
for why none of their students seem to be able to learn from them.
