2. Someone who is impatient can’t teach
Chazal say that:
Someone who is
impatient
can’t teach
Why?

3. There was a new class of sailors
Learning to sail
They wanted to do well …
Or at least not to fail

4. Hurry up and learn this, so I can go eat my cereal!
Their teacher was a captain
Who taught in his basement
He knew a lot about sailing
But was very impatient
Hurry up and learn this, so I can go eat my cereal!

5. What did you say an anchor does?
He never wanted to repeat
Anything that he said
Rather than explain
He shouted instead
What did you say an anchor does?
I TOLD YOU ALREADY!
I’M NOT REPEATING IT!!

6. I think an anchor makes the boat go forward.
The sailors tried to learn
But try as they might
They couldn’t seem to get
Anything quite right
Sounds right to me.
I think an anchor makes the boat go forward.

7. When they went to be tested
Out on the ocean
They all crashed their boats -
And caused a commotion!

8. לֹא הַקַפְּדָן מְלַמֵד
We see that:
Someone who is
IMPATIENT
CAN’t TEACH
In this case:
לֹא הַקַפְּדָן מְלַמֵד
CAPTAIN

9. לא הַקַפְּדָן
מְלַמֵד
An impatient
person
can’t teach
