Depending on your learning style, you may find that you gravitate towards a certain type of medium. Some find written instructions most helpful while others prefer audible means. I’m mostly a visual learner, but I also find that doing the actual thing teaches me the best (kinesthetic.)   While videos are a great way to learn many things, I find it hard to focus on the task at hand due to music, the voiceover, effects, and/or constant pausing if I get stuck. An alternative way to visually teach others is through photos laid out chronologically paired with informative text. This allows people to follow along at their own pace.   Whether it is recipes, crafts, editing, or home repair, you can share how to do any of them with tutorial photography.

I hope you also try and give yourself an assignment challenge, whether on a trip or even in your own town.   May the light be with you.           Follow
