Do you like \ not like to t e a c h (not just give a hint, but take the time and get involved, and real life person to person) ?

Nah, it's boring, tedious, only costs my precious time, brings me nothing.
Rather not, but can happen.
Sometimes maybe. So so.
Rather yes.
Absolutely - love it .. seeing the progress, the success, sharing those "Aha"-Moments, growing a passing partner, doing "together".

Voted depends: I usually try to spend about 20 minutes at club practice focusing and getting some really good practice in. During that time, I don't want to teach, talk, listen, etc.

Other than that, I'm normally happy to teach.

The last one. I like it, but I don't want to spend my precious juggling time doing something else than juggling (at least not too often). And regular juggling club meetings is usually the only place where someone is interesting in letting me teach them some juggling, so... I don't really teach much.

I should try to give some workshops on juggling conventions, though. I can't juggle all the time there anyway, and I tried it as a co-teacher in a passing workshop at the last BJC and really liked that. Now I just need to find something that I think I can actually teach well enough for a workshop.

Ah, yeah, I like to teach non-juggling things, too... As long as the person/people learning wants to learn, not if I'm trying to teach a whole class where some people would rather not be there at all. Though I usually don't have time or opportunities for that, either.
