In this paper it is argued that physics teachers, at all levels, need to pause and consider what epistemological overtones they are reflecting in their teaching. Transcripts from interviews with a group of graduated physics students are used to support the claim that teacher‐reflected epistemology may be a source of conceptual difficulty.
