Considering the extraordinary rarity of good explainers in this entire civilization, I’m saddened to say that talent may have something to do with it, not just practice.
I wonder what I should do. I’m smart, I seem to be able to explain things that I know to people well.. to my lament, I got the same problem as Thomas: I apparently suck at learning things so that they’re internalized and in my long term memory.
