Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Expert teachers have developed schemata or mental maps of the subject matter they teach.They are able to recognize patterns in problems and thus make connections faster than beginning teachers. This makes their thought process less effortful. Short-term memory and memorization are not necessarily relevant to expertise, and logical reasoning is a skill that can be developed by beginners and experts alike.
