Who's your teacher?  He or she needs a promotion.

Re: um...

(Deep Sigh) ... you can't please all the students. But at least the teachers are wise smile

In fact, what more can be done? If you describe the concepts with the best phrasing you can think of, include examples, pictures and animations at the appropriate points ...

What more ... ?

My mother was a ventriloquist, and was always throwing her voice. For ten years I thought my dog was telling me to kill my father.

Re: um...

That forum would be full of discussions like "Tips for begging", "How to treat dragged knuckles" and "Jaw going slack? Use string!"
