FAQ

What if I finish early?

In general, that is not a problem! You can go deeper into a particular issue or recap on a topic more extensively. However, it is fine to finish early.

What shall I do if there are too many questions?

Let's start with the questions that you think could be the biggest roadblockers.

What if there is a student with a question that is very specific to their machine?

Let's answer these questions last. Alternatively, ask if other teachers can support the student bilaterally on Slack.

What if I cannot solve a question?

This is absolutely normal. You can ask the other teachers on Slack to give an answer in the thread.

❤️ Thank you for helping the students progress ❤️
