Mentoring Is Overrated. Try Tutoring Instead - Conversation Starter - HarvardBusiness.org
september 2009 by jbreazeale
The idea that the best way to learn a subject is to teach it may be the bane of undergraduates left to the mercies of graduate teaching assistants, but it's remarkably true. In medical school, the cliché "See one; do one; teach one" has become a dominant pedagogical principle. In fact, George Bernard Shaw's notorious anti-educational quip gets flipped — instead of "Those who can, do; those who can't, teach," it's "Those who teach effectively learn how to do."
