I spent a lot of time as a tutor before I was a teacher and there's a difference between the two that might be relevant.

When tutoring, you mostly try to guide your student towards better understanding things they've already learned, often by asking questions that help them connect some dots or clarify their own understanding.

That's different from being the source of information as a teacher. Of course, you can still explain the ideas while tutoring, but it's in the spirit of explaining some one else's ideas rather than making an assertion about what they should believe.

I agree. And the middle way is probably the best path. That's more or less what I've been doing.

Its tricky because I really value my early experience with faith. I think it shaped me in good ways. And I'd love to see a similar result in my kids.

But, at this stage in my life I have trouble actually believing the thing I'm supposed to be teaching them.
