[Tango-L] Chris UK Comparing tango gods to mortal teachers

[Anna Zelenina]

Keith,

I have been following the discussions on this list for some months 
and I thank the list members for the variety of opinions expressed ;)

>  hates teachers in general
By reading the messages I could not detect hate in the criticism. Of course 
there is always the possiblity that I lack of understanding the nuances 
because I'm not a native speaker. 
IMHO criticism of teaching methods or teachers does not necessarily express hate. 
On the contrary, subjects exempted from criticism 
"become the subjects of just suspicion, and cannot lay claim to
sincere respect, which reason accords only to that which has stood the
test of a free and public examination." (Immanuel Kant: critique of pure reason)

Ways of learning can be different. A critical approach to class teaching, may it 
be of argentine or other origin and a preference of "direct teaching" 
by dancing with someone is something that does not surprise me. 
I guess it's a question of individual experience.

sunny greetings from Old Europe
Anna
