Hi! A small clarification: when I said that you need to own up to your mistakes, I was specifically referring to the automatic reinforcing habit (this is to say, drawing a line, it coming out wrong, and then fixing it in a knee-jerk reaction). I just wanted to make sure this was 100% clear. A line coming out wrong is not an issue; not being able to handle that is, as it inspires a bad attitude towards failure.
Regarding the ADHD thing, I'm not exactly qualified to comment (and my understanding of it is quite lacking, also), but I will offer that, whatever helps you remember, you can feel free to rely on. What I mean by this is that, in the course, we mention that pages need to be kept clean (no doodles, notes, etc.) But if you find that writing the steps in a corner somewhere, or whatever else, helps you, feel free to go for it. It's perfectly fine.
Finally, you don't need to worry about patience on my part. Usually, it's the opposite with students - they're the ones that feel like they're ready to move on, whereas we're the ones that need to hold them here, to make sure that they're not moving forwards with a foundation that's lacking. So, neither from myself, nor, I feel confident in saying, any of the other TAs, do you need to concern yourself about that. Take your time, and feel free to hit us up with questions.
NOW! Sorry to have kept you waiting; your lines look much better, and you may move on to the box challenge!
