I also think that good teachers deserve good students and good students deserve good teachers. Reading and enjoying this article I can understand why I believe you are a good teacher. Just looking at two areas that stand out in my mind. The first is the good feedback loop from the students you have. Second, providing easy access to reference material on-line for the students and then providing them with extra help to make learning easier and I believe more enjoyable because it's not as frustrating trying to grasp the more difficult concepts. Thank you for sharing this with me Dr. Sadler. I really enjoyed it.

I love that you’re bringing philosophy to young people learning the culinary arts - in I think the spirit of the young Will and Ariei Durant. Here's my effort to bring philosophy to the training of young psychotherapy interns learning their craft.

Yes, my lecture was already 6 years ago. Without being grandiose, we’ve been spreading the mustard seed of philosophy, to borrow a

metaphor from an ancient Jewish Palestinian Rabbi, for some time.

Sure. Just pointing out mine was over a decade back. So past tense for culinary

If you want to use that metaphor, I've been constantly sowing whole handfuls of those seeds for a couple of decades now. Just not with the culinary students for a while
