Another note:

The absolute WORST disservice a teacher/professor can do to a class is
gear it towards the least capable students. If the class is too
challenging you may leave some behind (but those either should seek
additional help or, as this is now university and more reflective of the
real world, they SHOULD be left behind). If the class isn't challenging,
you'll accomplish nothing of any real value by teaching it.
