How to Teach Anything: A Writer’s Guide On How to Explain Things

This is a tiny, tiny book – just 36 pages. Seriously, most comic books are longer than this book

I gather that the author is a bit of a book mill (so, a bit like the guy behind Crystal Clear Communication). She makes the point a couple of times that she quit her job full-time, and she’s published a lot of books and courses on all sorts of subjects.

I didn’t get a lot out of this book, just because it’s very, very basic. I did learn about the 4MAT theory of teaching, and I found that interesting. The book also pushes the principle that you have to explain things multiple ways. No two people learn the same way, and you need to try to cover more bases than you think.

Not a bad use of time, but this is not about high-end subtleties. Honestly, this is probably appropriate for people who have little experience writing.
