Learning is Easy... Teaching is Hard!

I would say that learning is easy. As humans we are constantly learning new things whether its purposely (in my case learning Indonesian) or subconsciously through life's experiences (in my daughters case, learning that sticking your fingers in an electric socket will hurt!). Teaching is hard because as teachers we have a set agenda of what we have to teach and in each lesson we have learning objectives, the difficulties lie in motivating learners, emphasising with our pupils to deliver content in an enjoyable way, eradicating misbehavior, enabling students to discover methods for understanding content and getting pupils to apply new information which is relevant to them and their future.
