My friend was barely keeping up in class. If she kept going this way she would fail the course. So she reached out for my help.

我的朋友课程基本跟不上。如果继续下去就该不及格了，所以她来向我求助。

She said, “I don’t understand the lectures; what should I do?” I replied, “I’ll help you; let's meet once a week and study together.” This gave her reassurance¹ and it also gave me a chance to study at the same time. A win-win situation.

她说：“我上课听不懂，该怎么办？”我回答说：“我会帮你，一周来找我一次，跟我一起学习。”这让她安心了，同时也给了我一次学习的机会，真是双赢。

Once a week we met in the library for an interactive² study session. She would teach me half of the lecture and I would teach her the other half.

我们一周在图书馆见一次面，一起学习。她教我一半的课程，我教她另一半。

You might be wondering, “Why did I ask her to teach me?” That’s because teaching other people is the most effective way to learn. If she could teach me the material, then it meant she understood it. If she got something wrong, I was there to correct her. And during the process I was also learning.

你可能在想：“我为什么让她教我？”那是因为教别人是最有效的学习方法。如果她能教我，那就意味着她明白了。如果她说错了，我就会纠正。这个过程中我也在学习。

She went on to pass the course and couldn't stop smiling for days.

她考试通过了，好多天都笑得合不拢嘴。

I challenge you to find someone whom you can teach.

我希望你去找一个你能教的人。
