They all had similar ideas about feedback. When receiving feedback don't take anything personally, try to actually make improvements, and don't focus on what you can't do and make use of what you can. When giving feedback, especially to kids, focus on the process and not the end result. Your presence with the child is more important than praising them. This all lines up with the Growth Mindset philosophy.
One thing I try to do when giving feedback is phrase it as something they can improve on, not something they're doing wrong. Instead of saying, "That's not how you do that," say "Next time why don't you try doing this instead. I think it could help." That way you're helping them improve and they won't see it as an attack on them. It's also good to say something they did well before saying what they can improve.
