I believe that hands-on learning is crucial for the development of 10th and 11th graders. For the last few months, I have had the privilege of teaching these students how to use basic tools and build things. In this process, I have witnessed the importance of giving students the opportunity to work with their hands and see the results of their work. Not only do they learn practical skills, but they also gain a sense of confidence and accomplishment that comes with building something from scratch. Throughout this experience, I have seen firsthand the value of teaching basic tools and their applications in real life, as well as the positive impact it has on students’ personal growth and development.
