The key ingredient to every lesson is engagement. By asking questions, actively listening and being completely present, we learn what that student wants to achieve during the lesson and how that transfers to their overall experience with the game.

I believe you must be endlessly patient and creative in your teaching, finding many different ways to convey your message in order for that student to truly learn the skill. By taking those things, along with the knowledge of fundamental core movement and an emphasis on playful learning, you can tailor the lesson to each individual player and create lasting, effective change.
