You must have seen students feeling jittery when it comes to the learning but let me tell you one thing, I have seen subject matter experts also fighting the fear of learning. It’s not that they don’t have grip on their subject but they don’t know the way to impart their knowledge among s or should I say, they don’t know the way to convey the expertise to someone else.
This blog is dedicated to the subject matter experts struggling conveying the body of knowledge associated with the subject to the candidates. As far as I know, there are certain facts that we take for granted but actually helpful for the learning.
