What is your teaching philosophy?
Whenever a student is feeling discouraged by a subject, I direct them to a subject they do know. It's important to remind ourselves of what we can do when we feel like we're struggling. Once they feel a little more confident in their abilities, I help them find the similarities between what they do know and the subject challenging them. By doing this, the student learns that they already have the tools they need to tackle subjects that feel beyond them.
