Re: If you disagree with your instructor's explanations...

Hiya:

When I originally posted this, I was speaking in general- If you disagree with your instructor's explanations (often, regularly, a majority of the time, etc.)

Some folks interpreted this as "If you EVER disagree, than why is he/she your instructor?"

I was going for the general statement to provoke thought and discussion, but some took it as very black/white unyielding commentary.

I apologize if I offended anyone, as that was not my goal.

BTW, I like Amir's point about differentiating between one's teacher and a momentary instructor.

A crust eaten in peace is better than a banquet partaken in anxiety.
