When one teaches a student to use certain critical reading/editing skills it can be tough to keep the basic difference in ability in mind. Minor skills that cost an experienced author no more effort than breathing might be a battle for a new learner, and that can be frustrating, especially for the very highly skilled.
A good character flaw to put in your character, especially one who you have given a genius level in any skill, is impatience, obvious or not, with teaching the less skilled. Being exceptionally skilled in an area and having saint like patience can push your character into Marty Stu territory.
