Trying to get better at getting better

“He who would learn to fly one day must first learn to stand and walk and run and climb and dance; one cannot fly into flying.” Friedrich Nietzsche

Learning how to do anything well takes time and often involves the achievement of small steps. When you’ve mastered a skill it’s often difficult to remember a time when you struggled to even understand the basic principles, so it’s important to try and remember what our students struggle with every day. Let’s give them the space to stand, walk, run, climb and dance, before we expect them to fly.
