And I once heard Mr. William Hunt, who is one of the first artists, say to a class of teachers, I shall not try to adapt myself to your various lines of teaching. I will tell you the best things I know, and you may make the adaptations.
In this excerpt from Edward Everett Hale's "How to Do It," Mr. William Hunt, a prominent artist, addresses a class of teachers emphasizing the importance of authenticity in sharing knowledge. He states that he will focus on communicating the best he has to offer without adjusting his message to fit different teaching styles. Instead, he invites teachers to adapt their methods to effectively convey his insights.
Hunt’s resignation from altering his core message highlights the value of staying true to one's expertise while allowing others to modify their approach for better understanding. His perspective encourages a balance between delivering genuine, high-quality knowledge and being flexible in teaching methods to suit diverse learning contexts.
