"Luckily, it’s now considered a form of hate speech to try to teach a person something they don’t know. Instead we have ‘student-centred learning’ – which means you act as though the student knows everything already and is the arbiter of great wisdom. A sort of ‘noble savage’ character, if you will, with trackies and vape pen in place of loincloth and spear."

That's a classic line!

I can't say that I'm not guilty of some of the reactions you've described. It's bloody annoying being told you're wrong, excruciating when you realise that you are.

I laughed out loud several times during reading this. Thank you, I really needed this, this morning!
