I believe that students have the capacity to learn anything, and follow a growth-mindset. A growth-mindset means that intelligence is not fixed, and anyone can learn. When things become difficult and challenges arise in learning, this is an opportunity for students to grow their minds and increase their abilities. It's not a sign that that subject "isn't for them." How would you help a student get excited/engaged with a subject that they are struggling in? I try to make subjects as close to home for the student as I can. I will explain different reasons a subject could be meaningful to them, and try to show them ways it can apply to different aspects of their lives. I will also bring different materials to try to find ones that the students really connect to and enjoy.
