After 1 month and a half at Advocators, I realize that there are 2 types of students. The first type of students are those like to ask us – the coach or their friends questions about the concept that they just learn, the exercise that they don’t know how to do yet or the mistakes they make during the drilling. The second type are those seem to be too shy to ask. They keep quiet even when they don’t really understand the concept, or don’t know how to approach the questions. Sometimes I notice they spend 15 minutes doing nothing, just staring at the question and praying for the answer to come. Afterall, which type of students you think will be better? First type, right?
It’s not because you’re stupid that you’re learning, it’s because you’re supposed to know this knowledge that you’re learning. Everybody has to go through this stage in his life. If you know everything that what’s the point of going to school and tuition anyway? No point, right? You’re here because you’re in the learning journey and we will guide you through it. Ask question, nothing to be ashamed of! The more you ask question, the more you improve yourself. When you say out loud what you don’t understand, it means you’re getting to know what is your weakness and you’re willing to change it.
However, please attempt the questions first and make sure that the problem is in your mind before you bring them to ask anyone else. You will make the best out of it by this way 
All the best for you, students

Great observation! I totally agree with you on the magic of asking. Its better to be laughed at once than to be ignorant for life. I prefer to be laugh at once. How about u?
