How does a learner that has a skill deficit in all or any of the above areas feel?

Words that others have used following the same exercises have included ‘frustrated’, ‘useless’, ‘humiliated’, ‘disappointed’, ‘surprised’, ‘embarrassed’. Unless we recognize and incorporate the individual needs of students within our classroom teaching, they may spend their entire education feeling as you did. Their self-esteem will be low and they will lose their confidence in learning. Whilst these students may have additional support, their needs must also be met within each lesson in the classroom where most of their education takes place.
