First establish five things and then teach.
What are the five?
When you teach others, you must think: 'I will teach in a gradual and sensitive way.
I will speak with the goal in mind.
I will speak with gentleness.
I will not speak in order to gain anything.
I will not speak with a view to harming anyone.'
"If you establish thse five things, your teaching will be well received."
- Anguttara Nikaya
