This advice should be taken with a grain of salt. It all comes down to the level of the instructor vs the level of the students.

If i taught like i were the student, most students would be left far behind probably trying to figure out how i got from point a to b.

With that said, on occasion (during advanced courses) i can really go all the way with the students and challenge them and sometimes even myself, it's a rare synergy between the student and teacher.

In any situation teaching is an act - it all about enthusiasm - even when its the most boring subject , you need to make the students feel excited about learning it.
