So when is a student ready to be a teacher?




I have so much apprehension about my ability to critique others on this site since I feel so comparably new too all of this myself.

Sometimes when something grabs me I feel the need to say a few things which really translates into me spending an hour on a reply. My concern is that it may not be totally what they were looking for, the advise is not followed or the dreaded "consider the source".

Do you feel this is a confidence factor that an artist develops - a teaching function of an extremely qualified professional - or that all could have something good to add?

If you think the last statement is true, isn't it the blind leading the blind and Lord knows what path they are taking you down?

How about being nice? When you open something and cringe, do you think it's best to just close the thread or that someone should speak up and give a reality check, with a sense of decorum and encouragement of course. Should this be done in private?

I would love to hear your thoughts.
