Tips when asking for help

  • Write down your questions before meeting the helper
  • Ask them to show you slowly - you should learn yourself, not just watch
  • Don't be embarrassed - everyone was a beginner once
  • Take notes or ask to have instructions written down
  • Ask if you can call if you forget how to do it
