Key Takeaways:

Be more positive with your student, it will help to remove the frustration and help them cultivate a growth mindset.
Everyone should be a teacher. If you are a parent, you are a teacher. If you are an adult out in the world, you are a teacher.
It is not just about the score – it is also about the life skills your student is developing.
Escapism is the killer of adventure in life. Lean into each challenge and approach it with a constructive mentality and you will create an amazing foundation for your life’s journey.
