For example, some kind of teaching is better than others inasmuch as it incorporates better methods. Some materials are better than others inasmuch as they can be better employed in a preferred method. Thus to answer the question, "What makes one method better than another?" is indirectly to answer questions as to what is better teaching and what are better materials.

Teachers are individuals and some individuals seem to succeed at teaching no matter what method they employ; others can't make out with anything.
