But if you wanto to grow as a artist, then you must start asking questions not related to any technical matter.

Mark,I found that I could make more of a difference by explaining that after a modest amount of technical knowledge they could teach themselves everything else. That freed me to get to the art and the "philosophy" if you will. Once students are excited about making pictures they strive on their own for higher skill levels. Now days especially it is simply a given that everyone must be technically proficient doing something. There are no 101 courses in a school worth attending. Lucky for me there are "For Dummies" books!AZ

I have enjoyed all the responses and appreciate all the insight. Switching it around a bit, instead of things that helped you learn. Why not do a top three of things the teachers out there do that they find consistently effective for the majority of people.
Just think there could be a lot to be learned from these. What are you trying to teach? How you do it. Why it works. I'm sure we can all pick up something to try with our next class and those that don't teach have some new ideas to ponder.
