Teaching and Learning

I feel like there are so many (maybe too many) ways to define teaching and learning. The most basic definition of teaching I am thinking about right now is that: Teaching is showing someone how to do something new and giving them the basic skills they need in order to get that "something" done. The key word here is 'new'. Teaching is an action that involves another person having little or no prior knowledge of the skill or idea. Something new is brought to their attention and is brought to their thoughts. Learning, on the other hand, is a little more complicated to define. In relation to my teaching definition, learning means: Taking in the new information presented by [the teacher] and forming and fitting that knowledge in to what you [the learner] may or may not have already known. These definitions are very basic and broad, but both teaching and learning can be very broad considering the circumstance.
