Sometimes I really wonder if people listen at all.\u00a0 Have you ever explained something to someone and thought 5 minutes later\u2026they just didn\u2019t get a thing you said???<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
As a company owner, mentor, manager and coach I have run into this so many times I cannot count!\u00a0 Fortunately, I DO listen. \u00a0Fortunately also, I have learned from people over the years who are a lot smarter than I!<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
People learn differently.\u00a0 It seems like a simple concept\u2026but it can be difficult to master from the teacher\u2019s perspective.\u00a0 As you know, teachers each teach a certain way, which means all the students of a teacher may not be able to learn from that teach the same things if the students each learn differently\u2026hmmmm.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
I think there is a movie from the 80\u2019s that said\u2026and so the master becomes the student (or vice versa).\u00a0 In order to teach someone something, first you must learn how they learn.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Some people learn from hearing, some from touching, some from seeing.\u00a0 You have met all of these people.\u00a0 Those you can sit in lectures and grasp the concept, those who need to read the book themselves before they observe anything, and those who must do the experiment themselves before the lesson really sinks in to their cerebral sponge.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Once you learn someone\u2019s learning technique, you can stop repeating yourself, and maybe put a few less noggin dents in the ole wall.\u00a0 Have fun!\u00a0 I look forward to hearing how it goes!<\/p>\n
