I learned that everybody learns differently and that it is good to cater to each style of learning.

It is important to be mindful of various learning styles and incorporate them as much as we can in our day to day sessions.

From the “Planning Effective Questions” module, I learned that asking the right types of questions can greatly improve student engagement and understanding.
