My translation would come out like this. Hope this helps.

"El maestro mediocre explica complejidad; el maestro dotado revela simplicidad."

Saludos.

That sounds just right!!! - rogspax, Jan 14, 2013
Nice job, what a great phrase that is too - me encanta :) - Kiwi-Girl, Jan 14, 2013
I agree, nice job! I would use articles with "complejidad" and "simplicidad." Also between the two clauses you could use "mientras" if you choose - 005faa61, Jan 14, 2013
I hesitated about the articles too JC, I know I would have used them if I translated it but I'm sure that I sometimes still put them in when they're not necessary and I thought this one may well be one of those cases lol, ah well, live and learn :) - Kiwi-Girl, Jan 14, 2013
