I think that is the biggest thing- we all learn differently and there isn't one cookie cutter experience or way of teaching that will work for every individual. It's a struggle to be the teacher, but it can also be a struggle to be the "learner!" I really had to work at learning when Travis was trying to teach, and he also had to learn how to teach me :)<br /><br />I think it would've greatly eased the stress had it been easier for me to find another companion to glean from during my biggest learning stages. As scary as it might be sometimes to go out of a comfort zone and "find someone else" it can be so beneficial! Kudos to you and your friend!

I just read it to my newly born riding sister and she gasped at the relatable experience she has been having with her helpers....Thank God for access to riders who understand the importance of different learning styles. I encourage every women to find a riding mentor!! Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
