How you perceive your pupil



Picture an image in your mind of you and your pupil in your driving school car.  Think for a second what you would add to that image if you were to graphically demonstrate how learning occurs in your driving school car.

How does that look?


How many people given that task would place an arrow going from the instructor to the pupil - in between the heads perhaps?


Learning to drive occurs in a variety of ways, using many techniques.  It has very little to do with academic intelligence. 

Be careful how you perceive your pupils' potential for learning as it may restrict their progress. 


Tapping into the power of the growth mindset brings tremendous gains, but that is dependent on the instructor having the skills to create that learning environment.
