How many people have you taught to solve cubes?

[~Adam~]

Within a week of learning I taught 2 other friends.
I think I'm up to 7 now with 1 well on their way.
At least another 6 have learnt from them.

How many people have you infected with the ability to solve a 3x3x3 or other twisty puzzles?

 

[Andreaillest]

About 2-3. I'm sure they don't cube at all anymore.

 

[supercuber86]

I've taught 2 they dont remember the steps or algorithms but i taught them and they solved it

 

[RCTACameron]

Because of me, probably 4 or 5 people learned how to cube, and another about 3 people started learning, but have stopped. 3 of the people I have taught still cube.

I have taught 2 people, but gotten 9 people, not including the 2 I taught

Had a club in high school, and taught some friends in college, ran a puzzle clinic at a math camp for 3 years to teach kids how to solve, have a club at the college where I teach, plus some other miscellaneous friends of friends or friends of siblings = I've probably taught around 200 people to solve the cube since 1998 when I first started.

I'm horrible at teaching and explaining.

Taught one to solve a 3x3, taught another to solve a megaminx (without knowing how to solve 3x3). I'm more proud of teaching the guy megaminx. I explained to him the concept of commutators and he actually understands how to solve the LL.

i taught 5 of my freinds how to cube

then we brought all are cubes to school one day and had a race, which i won

Anyhow, I've probably taught hundreds by now. At some point, the question doesn't really have a clear answer anymore.

I went to Ross last summer (2009) and co-taught 10 or so people. Some got sub 50 before the end of camp and I attempted (haha didn't really work) to teach some F2L to some people. I remember having to write down the 3 corner cycle a bunch of times.

I was president of the cube club in my high school junior and senior year. I probably taught 20 people in my life. I'm horrible at teaching PLL though .

2. 1 friend learnt to solve a 3x3 in late 2007 and now averages about 40 still using beginners CLL and ELL (lol). And my dad can solve a 2x2 in about 30 seconds, with a PB of 8 seconds (LL skip). He does FL > PLL with the alg that inserts a middle layer edge on 3x3, > R' D' R D OLL

 

[choza244]

i think like 10 friends, and some other learned from them

 

[da25centz]

taught my younger brother how to do a 2x2, taught like 5 or 6 of my friends how to do 3x3

 

[CubesOfTheWorld]

0. No one has asked me to teach them. I have motivated 5 people to learn, though.

 

[guinepigs rock]

I taught one to solve the cube but she all ready was learning and knew notation.

1.

Tried to teach my cousin LBL, but she can only solve the first layer, sometimes the second. She makes me wanna :fp
