Field Scenario
A parent asks why their child isn’t progressing as quickly as the parent expected, based on comparisons to other students they’ve heard about.
What You Actually Do
- Address the concern directly and honestly rather than offering vague reassurance
- Explain the child’s actual current progress in specific, concrete terms
- Discuss realistic pacing expectations for this specific student
- Offer concrete ways the parent can support more effective home practice
