When I was working with student-athletes, the question wasn’t: ‘well, how do I do number five on the problem set?’ Instead, the conversation was: ‘I need to do problem five, but before I can, I was late to class for this reason, and I have this going on, and I’m dealing with an injury.’ It very much helped me to center a student’s story in how they do their work.
