I think, many teachers either lack important knowledge or they simply don't know that what they know is important to understand the bigger picture. Others include unnecessary information.

I teach different courses (database architectures, programming and cloud computing) at universities and the most challenging part is to figure out what questions students might have and how they think differently about contents. I update my course materials and exams every semester based on their feedbacks and based on solutions provided.

And you are right, that is not something that one just can do, it's a skill to be learned and needs constant practice.
