Why
personalized is essential
IN
today’s world of mass production, people usually
reminisce the time when things were not.
Before,
people have seemingly all the time as they painstakingly
accorded effort and time in everything they do.
You
would notice that most things before were made by hand
and thus, you would still be amazed by the product’s
high quality.
It seems
that things made by hand before were accorded the
attention to detail that made these things highly
valuable today as compared with those made by machines
in almost similar likeness.
This is
true, not only in production, but also in the way we
deal with relationships and life. It is the time of easy
come and easy go. Friends, particularly those not gained
through mutual trust and lasting respect, are quick to
vanish. Things that are not acquired through hard work
are also easily spent on things without redeeming value.
In
building a person’s character or skill, personalized
attention to detail is also very important. It won’t be
easy for one coach to relay instructions to a mass of
hundreds, but the task would definitely be easier on a
one on one basis.
For
those who are familiar with school education, they would
notice that those belonging to a class made up of more
than 50 students (this is true in most public schools)
have difficulty learning when taken in with other
factors. On the other hand, it would seem that the
teacher can reach out to students if he or she can
almost talk to them one by one.
I’ve
always thought that this is why tutorials are most
effective when a kid does not do well in class. Instead
of learning the skills or knowledge through a collective
channel, he or she is given the chance to learn it in a
more rigorous atmosphere. This encourages the students
not to fall back and let others learn but exert effort
themselves.
This is
true in the case of basketball teaching. Personally, I
have seen the benefits of teaching basketball to a
smaller group of students (five persons at the most)
instead of a big group in which a student may feel like
a stranger or simply uncared for.
A
student in this case is sure to be given the adequate
attention and also close monitoring of how he takes in
the skills as the exercises would simplify the learning
process.
A
student who is given personal attention gains greater
confidence as he learns more skills the personalized
way. This, I believe is the way of the future. |
