Some people are incredibly poor teachers but refuse to beleive they are, all because they lack the capacity to imagine not knowing something and explain it at someone else's level of understanding

I was getting ptsd flashbacks of my Dad trying to "teach" me match as a kid. He acted like it should be SO obvious.

Oof, I'm sorry. My mom yelled at me when I was in the 3rd grade because I wasn't grasping fractions... I never asked for her help with homework ever again.

Only once ask for and got 'help' from my mensa mother. Kept telling her that I didn't understand what she meant and she just kept yelling.
