How do you help students develop confidence in their learning?

"I do this through two main philosophies that are intertwined. The first is that none of this is a really big deal. As a kid, I always felt like school was something you must excel at, or you’re a failure. Encouraging kids that it’s just school and there’s a whole world out there to learn and explore helps shrink down some of the anxieties I commonly see.

The second philosophy is that learning is for the student who’s learning! I see lots of kids trying to meet bars and expectations set by them externally, and I think it’s very important to have that care and belief come from within. "
