Ep. 78 -
Here's how my response has changed over the years when a student says
“I’m just no good at this.” (Whatever ‘THIS’ is.)
Or “I hate _____” - a subject, a type of task, like an essay or a speech, or maybe a text they’re reading.
The thing is, it's not realistic to think that they're going to love or be good at everything.
So, I no longer try to convince them that it's actually great or useful.
And instead, I tend to acknowledge and hear their feelings,
and show them how to 'embrace the suck'!
