During Mackenzie’s discussion we talked about the quote “Here, no one teaches another, nor is anyone selftaught. People teach each other…” We decided that this quote meant that it is not possible to learn from yourself, nor from someone else. Instead, Freire is saying that the only way in which we can learn is by teaching others. While we try to explain and teach others, we are teaching ourselves, rather than teaching the other person. The more someone teaches the more they learn. Mackenzie brought up a story from high school that perfectly exemplified Freire’s statement. She said that she had a math teacher who made the class teach a problem to another student every time before they took a test or quiz. Talking about things that someone is passionate about can help someone learn or want to learn more about those topics. Sharing information with other people can help the teacher to have a deeper understanding of the information. Connecting an idea to a personal example can also help it stick in someone’s mind.
