Meaningful Mentoring Moments
summary
Practical coaching moves: prompt active recall by asking what’s your guess? instead of quizzing, actively encourage making mistakes and try solutions together, and delegate answers by looking it up together in docs or Google. When multiple issues exist, slow down and prioritize the immediate blocker (syntax/runtime errors first, style later). Use welcoming language to build trust, say “I don’t know, let’s try,” listen more than lecture, and pause to reflect on what to do next.
