Identifying Individual Motivation

Something I find extremely useful when it comes to teaching dance:

“You cannot use one generic motivational technique to motivate everyone. Rather, you must identify the motivational needs of each of your dancers and work to motivate them accordingly. For example a class that focuses on drilling may motivate those dancers who enjoy developing skills but may alienate those who enjoy dance as a social activity”
