Few people truly understand what understanding means at all, i got teacher in college that seriously thinked that you should not understand content of lessons but simply remember it to the letter
I am so glad I had one that was the opposite. I discussed practical applications of the subject material after class with him and at the end of the semester he gave me a B+ even though I only got a C by score because I actually grasped the material better than anyone else in the class, even if I was not able to evaluate it as well on the tests.
I'm glad for you) out teacher liked to offer discussion only to shoot us down when we tried to understand something, i was like duh that's what teachers are for, to help us understand, if teachers don't do that, then it's the same as watching YouTube lectures
