Thank you for your advice.
I did asked a lot of question, at every step of the explanation, to ensure she was following, but when I tried to wrap it all, that's where I lost her.
I might also have tried to explain her something she's not ready to understand based on her school level, that might be a a part of why she didn't understood my explanation.
- beatgammit 8y agoCan you get her to wrap it all? When teaching, it's often better to get them to draw the conclusion logically, and then have them explain by working an example with you. I find that I learn as much or more by teaching than being taught. A good teacher, then, is one who gets the student to teach. Set the stage so the next step is obvious and have them make that leap. I'm not an expert at it either, but that's what I've noticed from my favorite teachers.
- cx42net 8y agoI haven't done that, but I'll try next time to see how she explains it. That's a good idea, thanks!
