It is, however, laborious and complex. I had taken ages to write a simplified form. One of my clients, a person who had never worked in any form of therapy, took my idea and made it into a quick simple and very effective tool. So simple, so effective that worrying just vanishes within a week and because it is solution orientated, the client takes much greater control over their lives.
I always listen to my clients, they have lived; they have loved and they have suffered (that is why they come to me) and in that living - loving - suffering is experience. It is experience born out of facing life that is the real teacher (guru) of us all.
Of course, everybody can teach you something... or many things... and not only people, but also other beings... a cat can teach you many things... a quiet cat can teach you how to be silent and calm and peaceful... a playful cat can teach you how to be funny and clownish... A tree can teach you patience... and how to live a really long life... And so on...
Every person is unique and has a unique perspective. Everyone has some knowledge unique to them. Everyone can teach you something - about them, about others, about the world, and even about yourself.

If chance and circumstance has it to be, then yes the subject matter is only a matter of subjection.
It is not so much a thing to teach as it is an experience to share, but there is much to any one of each of the everyone.

Yes, but just because they can teach me something doesn't mean it's worth learning. I have an acquaintance who is a marijuana junkie.

yes, definitely, every person you meet can teach you something, even if they only tell you something about them self. Something about their life.
Probably, as I do not knowing everything about everybody.
Sometimes the experience just reinforces what you think.
