Teaching skill

Teaching is the art of conveying concepts and ideas to others in such way as to improve the students' ability in the subject being taught.

Class Size

The number of students (deemed class size) is determined by the ranks in the Teaching skill of the person teaching.

Teaching	No. of Students
0-24	1
25-49	2
50-99	3
100-199	4
200-399	5

After 200 ranks, the teacher gets 1 more student every 200 ranks of Teaching.

Factors

How well one teaches one's students and your students learn depends on several factors. Teaching skill, Scholarship skill, Charisma, other mental Attributes, skillset of the subject being taught, and race all play their various parts. Some skills have special factors on top of these. Guilds with guild-only skills can only teach them to members of that guild. In the case of Empathy, the student must first link to the teacher and the class is restricted to just that one student.

Special Note

Teaching or listening to someone who is the same race and or guild as you is more effective and thereby trains better.

Training

Teaching a class on teaching is the fastest way to learn teaching.

Anyone who listens to a class will now learn a small amount of teaching. (You gain the most experience in the subject being taught, followed by scholarship, followed by teaching.)

A student can convert anyone's class into a teaching class by using LISTEN {TEACHER} OBSERVE. This reverses the order of experience gained to teaching, followed by scholarship, followed by the subject taught.
