The opening of this shiur, in Rabbi Aryeh Wolbe’s own words — taken from the captions, so names and Hebrew terms may be approximate.

welcome back everybody way number 46. way number 46 is rabo educate the educators so here's an amazing thing when you teach you learn more than you're actually teaching that's again my system of how i learn is when i teach i learn it better i retain the information better i have greater clarity when you undertake the responsibility of being a teacher you have to absorb the information you have to absorb the information better so that you can present it to others but when one person teaches two people learn there's so much greater value you duplicate the amount of wisdom in the world to get the full meaning of any idea you must ask questions ask questions inquire don't just take it because someone said it oh they have to be a wise person and therefore they know what they're talking about no inquire don't just take it because someone said it if your rabbi and your synagogue tells you something say thank you rabbit tells you something say thank you rabbit that's brilliant what's the source to it how does this fit with something else that we learned in talmud or in the mishnah how does that fit and by the way it's an amazing thing if you ever go to a yeshiva you will see that there is always a contradiction that's being presented the talmud is faced with it constantly if you open up any page of talmud and you look there is the rashi on the inside and the outside is the tosafot
