How To Help Someone Use A Computer

Tell yourself:"Your primary goal is not to solve their problem. Your primary goal is to help them become one notch more capable of solving their problem on their own. So it's okay if they take notes."

When you've convinced yourself:"When they do something wrong, don't say "no" or "that's wrong". They'll often respond by doing something else that's wrong. Instead, just tell them what to do and why"

These pieces of advice will be helpful in my team presentation by reminding me to slow down, be patient, and realize that some students may take longer than others to understand the use of technology that we will be describing.
