    I don’t mind teaching, in limited doses; but I do not have the patience/temperment to handle a class of students or even regular one-on-one sessions.

    Nobody wants their teacher getting frustrated because they don’t understand something new, and it’s not fair to put students in that position.

      Seems we have some things in common if that’s the case.

      I changed career path about a third of the way through my qualifiers after realizing the same about myself. Love to teach, but I now know me well enough to save it only for the niche oddballs looking to learn the niche things I’m actually certain I can properly serve. Most anything else ends up a practice in patience on both ends lol
