What Coaching Fencing Taught me about Teaching
En garde! For a while, some years back, I was assisting the coach of the Double T Fencing club by coaching the beginners. Coaching is a species of teaching, but it wasn’t until years later that I realized how some of the lessons I learned as a coach could transfer to the Philosophy classroom. For one thing, fencing involves not just learning skills, but learning sub-skills and stringing them together appropriately. So does Philosophy! People come to fencing with different strengths, and different areas that need shoring up. So does Philosophy!
