I foster a classroom culture where mistakes are seen as valuable learning opportunities, not failures. When students know it’s safe to take risks, they feel more confident to experiment with tools, diagnose problems, and apply new skills without fear. This encourages critical thinking and creativity, which are essential in automotive work where every problem can have multiple solutions.
I have learned that students who feel like they are in a safe environment are more likely to engage in learning by asking questions, and not being afraid of making mistakes.
