I chose this book because, as an instrumental teacher, I use to hearing 'this is hard', 'I can't do this' and 'that other student can do because they are naturally good at it' (Spoiler, that other student practices and works hard). Students and humans want things to be easy for them. I'm hoping this book will give me new insights into, and strategies to develop Grit in my students to help them understand they need to put the work in to get the results they want. In order to be good at something we have to practice it and do things wrong and not give up, I want students to understand this.
