He Kept pumping Sasuke only for his ego so that he won't leave the village but exactly opposite happened. He didn't help either Sakura(who was genjutsu type and could have learnt Genjutsu skills in his tutelage) or Naruto in original series instead Naruto went off with Pervy Sage and Sakura went along with Tsunade for training. I would say his was least contribution despite him having the most screen time. he didn't pump Sasuke for his ego. Sasuke was simply the closest to him in intelligence and capability, and so the effects of training him would be far more noticeable. As i've pointed out before, Kakashi set Naruto up with a capable trainer that better matched Naruto's limited prior education. Jiraiya took over voluntarily. Under Kakashi, Sakura stood up for herself. She got knocked out of the Chunin exams so there was no point in Kakashi teaching her at that point. After that, Naruto went on a tour with Jiraiya and after that, Sakura asked Tsunade to teach her medical ninjutsu. I don't see what Kakashi should've done better there, since these kids were clearly finding their own way.
