to learn again.”

efficient when you’ve
tried it on your own
“Try to find solution yourself
first before asking someone
so you can be more specific
in what you’re asking.”
—Sabari

for help; fear of
being burdensome
“Feel burdensome to ask
questions because it
might sound silly.”

for someone isn’t
teaching them

might just take it over and that
doesn’t help because then
you’re not learning.”

more efficient ways
of doing things
“It’ll be great if someone can
tell me another way that would
be more efficient.”

conversation if only
have limited time.”
