Simplicity May Mean Mastery

"If you can't explain it to a six year old, you don't understand it yourself."

― Albert Einstein


When I was teaching,
I'd test my students as follows:

"Explain this as if you were explaining this to a moderately intelligent 12 year old."

When they could, I know that they had internalized the material.

Best Regards,
