I can then build on this through feedback starting with what they have done well and what needs to be improved or achieved next. Through feedback and questioning I can engage the learner by listening to what they have to say and responding to their questions or concerns. Learners need to know how they are progressing and what they have achieved in regular intervals. This also helps to encourage, motivate and develop them further.

There are an effective means of meeting the needs of the learner.
