Hello nairalanders!!
Am a bit confused about the above topic, i was chatting with someone yesterday he was telling me how he teaches people and immediately they acquire that knowledge but when others teaches him he doesn't seems to understand but he claims to be intelligent, so i told him that he might be intelligent but not brilliant he also claims that the people teaching him don't know how to teach am just wondering that everyone teaching him don't know how to teach same time, i also told him that some people might be brilliant and not intelligent while some are vice- versa.
Please mod can you move this topic to front page so others can air their opinion.

Brilliant = to know what you're taught in class and be able to tackle any question with courage
Intelligent = knowing more than the teacher or knowing SOMETHING that is beyond your age limit
