'A coach may learn all there is to know about technique and still not be a
good coach. After all, it is only what he is able to get his players to do that
counts. To help him in this, some of the more common probelms with
suggestions for their solution, are here explained.

The problems are:

A coach will nearly always find at the end of a week that only a small part
of what he has tried to teach has been absorbed.

The coach should know exactly what is to be done with each minute of the
time available, there is none to be wasted. No coach can go on to the field
and merely drive his men at random from one thing to another and expect to
get anywhere at all. He must have a plan and follow it.

He should make the work progressive from day to day.

It is best not to attempt to give too many ideas in one day. The coach should
plan the work as to give a little new stuff each day but not too much. This not
only makes learning easier but helps keep up the interest which is of the utmost
importance.

The coach must make things as simple as possible. Coaches make a serious
mistake when they try to impress their players with their own knowledge.
What a coach knows will not win any game; it is only what he is able to
teach his players that counts. The teaching, therefore, should be reduced to
the simplest and least conflicting terms possible.

Whenever it can be done, general principles should be established that will
govern play under all of a number of similar situations.

The coach must be patient, no squad of men will assimilate what the coach
has to teach them at one hearing. It is always necessary to repeat and
repeat again.

The coache must conatantly impress upon the players the importance of
fundamentals

The coach must work hard himself. Work is contagious. If the coach is
indifferenttoward his work it will be impossible to get hard work from the
players but if he is always working hard and lets his men know he is in
ernest, they will tend to be and do the same.'

Hello Jack!

If you replace the word "coach" with "Sifu", and the word "players" with the word "students" you have some excellent guidelines for teaching Jeet Kune Do! Good post!
