"Every student is looking for a great teacher. What a lot of students don't realise is that every teacher is looking for a great student." – Ron Leslie
We're talking here about a dance workshop Corissa attended. But really this is about how to seek out and handle feedback in all kinds of situations.
- How do you evaluate whether feedback is helpful or not?
- How do you handle feedback or advice that's not constructive?
- What do you do with people who throw their opinions around confidently even though they're wrong?
- Challenges in evaluating your own level of experience or skill
- When you ask for feedback, do you really want to learn – or do you secretly want to be validated?
- Two ways to receive feedback badly
- Choosing a team based on their ability to take feedback on board
- An example of a teacher deliberately showing a class that they don't know as much as they thought
- Feedback is taken differently by professionals vs hobbyists
- Putting yourself out of your depth to trigger your lazy brain to want to put the effort in to learn
- Some teachers/bosses are trying to challenge you; others are abusive
- Some options to try if you want to challenge yourself more
