Great post and it reminded me of "differentiation" or "differentiated instruction" where teachers are supposed to slightly modify assignments, requirements, and tasks to students ability levels such that they can be motivated and grow as learners and thinkers. Recently, I have learned of differentiated supervision as a way to supervise employees or teachers and ensure the structures, conditions, and more are in place for them to succeed.

What an interesting story! I hadn't thought about it, but you're right, when you adjust these limits individually you make each person reach their full potential and develop without feeling overwhelmed.

It is essential the work of the teacher in this process, for this kind of reasons are important. If you think about it, all the information is in books, but people go to classes. It is for these kinds of reasons.
