The difference between 'guiding' and 'teaching'

[Parsons]

Parsons, are you talking about personal preferences?

I am talking about my personal preference to teach/learn rather than guide (whenever possible).

I realized the attitude was one of my holdovers from before I awoke to any degree. I remember as a child occasionally showing someone how to do something and prefacing it with something like "this is best way I've found to do this, but you may find a better way".
