Let me tell you a story:

Waaaaay back when I was a young gladiator lad I was DF'ing halatali for the first time. I had tanked for a long time in FFXI and thought I knew everything. When we are pulling mobs I was not using flash enough to keep hate on AoE damage bursts from the mages in the party. This led to a "you suck tank" style rebuf that was greatly unappreciated. However, in that same instance the healer ( a higher level tank) politely pointed out what I should be doing. It was simple advice that I probably could have figured out on my own over time, but I still think kindly of that guy to this day. I have on many occasions in content I don't know been asked to do things differently, it's always been more of a help than a hindrance.

As long as people are going into content with a higher than 3rd grade mentality then you should be giving advice if you are the more experienced one in the dungeon or raid.
