thoughts about teaching
It's been a while since I've posted anything on this site. It's actually been more than a year since my last post. I wasn't sure if there was anyone out there reads this stuff. Apparently, people do.
Well, naturally, so much has happened over the course of one year. One thing is that our Saturday class has been discontinued. Teacher was tired of dealing with all the nonsense from the students and other curious ones. So now were left to learn by ourselves, which is not a bad way to learn.
Nowadays I practice by myself, or sometimes with my friends/brothers/colleagues, or whatever you call it. Practice is very important because without it the knowledge learned seem to wither away and you have to start from scratch again. In my case, my memory gets rusty and I tend to forget the steps, and there are some numerous steps and forms. So daily practice is mandatory and not an option.
I've been thinking lately of teaching part of the 64-form for free, but it's still in the works, since my schedule right now is very tight. It might work if I was teaching with a group of other teachers, but it's hard enough to get going just by myself. Group efforts are usually slow, in my experience. So a single focused effort is probably the way to go, but I'm still open for suggestions.
