Hi Sir Stephen!
It’s truly inspiring how you turned a challenging moment into a powerful learning experience. Your story shows the transformative impact of active learning and student-led strategies, even when they push us out of our comfort zones. It’s understandable to feel overwhelmed at first, but your persistence and growth mindset are commendable. I agree that active learning fosters critical thinking, deeper engagement, and lasting knowledge retention. Your experience is a great reminder that setbacks can be stepping stones toward greater confidence and self-efficacy in both teaching and learning.
