My lessons focus more on why we need to learn a certain topic. Most of the teaching in academic setting is about how to do something only.When we learn how we use something in real life, students have more interest in learning math or coding,I start with understanding the gaps in the student academics. For example you are not so great at fractions you cannot do stuff related to fractions in future. Hence I focus on filling gaps so that students get confidence to do bigger problems.
I emphasize more on understanding the topic rather than doing a lot of problems because if you understand the concept you can solve any problem easily. I encourage the students to take notes so that they can refer to them in the future if they are stuck.
Letting go of the fear of failure helps us to try more and the more we try the more we make progress. To let go of the fear we need to be kind to yourself. Making mistakes is important is my motto in teaching.
