Because every student is unique, I believe it is essential that each individual is allowed to progress at their own pace, without unnecessary pressure or unrealistic expectations. Students come to lessons with varying abilities, learning styles, and personal goals. Some may advance quickly in certain areas while needing more time and support in others.
