Quote by John Locke

It is easier for a tutor to command than to teach.

It is easier for a tutor to command than to teach.

Summary

This quote suggests that anyone can give commands or instructions, but it requires more skill and effort to effectively educate and teach someone. While commanding someone simply requires authority or power, teaching involves imparting knowledge, understanding, and facilitating learning. A tutor who can effectively teach must possess not only knowledge of the subject matter, but also the ability to engage and connect with students, understand their unique needs, and employ various teaching strategies to promote comprehension and growth.
