Maybe I'm wrong, or memory does not serve me as it should, but when I attended Accy Grammar, I was taught by people whose only qualification for teaching was a degree of some sort. Any teaching skills that any of them had, must have been aquired as they went on. Some of them had the knack (I wouldn't call it an art), and some of them didn't. How do you teach someone to teach? Does the aquisition of a B.Ed. make someone into a teacher in an Ozian way?
