One of the best things you can do for your students is to teach them how to ask for help. It can be a difficult skill to master, but it is important to do what you can to help them improve their problem-solving skills.
Here are three tips to help you become a better helper:
1. Be aware of your body language
When you are asking for help, be aware of your body language. Be relaxed and confident, and avoid making yourself look daunting.
2. Be clear and concise
Be sure to focus on the problem you are trying to solve, and do not try to include too many details.
3. Make sure you are taking the time to listen
Don’t try to get through the question quickly and be patient when answering. This will help the students feel like they are being taken seriously and that they are having a conversation with a real person.
