Though some kids take easier to it than others and some teachers are better than others at teaching it. But in the end, it comes down to the individual learner’s motivation.

Agree totally. Especially their ‘skill set’. Wish parents/teachers would access that knowledge about their children early and ‘feed’ them along those lines.

Some minds learn best with imagination/concepts and storytelling, others are better with their hands touching/doing; some focus on detail others big pic.

Allowed to find ‘my way’ thru the maze of the ‘forced’ learning years and was fortunate to have those few superb teachers along the path that made a difference that is now inculcated into me.
