Task
6. Teach somebody something and check that it worked
Required
With your counselor's approval: a plan, teaching aids you prepared, the teaching itself, and then working out with your counselor whether the person actually learned it.
Notes and warnings
Note. Your counselor approves the plan before you teach. The requirement does not end with the lesson either: you and your counselor then work out whether the person actually learned what you intended, which means picking somebody you can go back to.
