Wow, from biology to sales! Quite a jump! I agree though that teaching makes you think about things in brand new ways (including why you do the things you do.) Welcome to BizSugar and I hope we'll see many more posts. Thanks for sharing.

I remember back in high school I loved studying best with a buddy. I liked to be the person asking the questions. As the other person was trying to formulate the answer, I found that I was going over the answer in anticipation and learning much better than when it was me trying to come up with the answer. Teaching is a great way to learn.
