A companion piece to his advice for research students, this essay speaks to the lecturer at the front of the room. The counsel is practical throughout: prepare thoroughly but teach flexibly; use questions to assess learning as you go; make students active participants rather than passive listeners; record yourself lecturing and watch it — "even the smallest change can have a large effect"; set boundaries and protect time for rest to avoid burnout.

The closing principle: the goal is never to deliver the lecture, it is to teach. "Every time you give a lecture, make sure the students understood it. The students should always be working harder than you."
