My teacher on Steemit

Source

Hello everyone!

Being a teacher or mentor comes with a lot of responsibility, and this is no different in the steemit platform. Despite the simplicity of the platform, it comes with a lot of navigation over time to master how best it can be explored and get the best at every given time. The rules of engagement maybe central but a little skewed for communities as they come up with their concepts.

1. Tell us who has guided or taught you on the Steemit Platform.

I may have about two teachers or mentors who put me through when I was onboarded into the steemit platform, but I will be choosing to speak on one who is still very much active in the platform. He is no other person but @xkool24, one of the cofounders and lead admin in #Steem4Nigeria community.

From my achievement one to the last achievement 6 that labeled me a pro newcomer user, he was the support I needed. He had some hands-on tutorials with me where he directed me on how amd what to do. All what was expected in each of them, their importance and their application into the steemit platform especially the tools.

I could remember when I visited his home, he practically showed me everything I needed to know. That was the breaker for me as a I understood it far better than when it was on the phone.

1. What have you learned from him/her about Steemit?

Having passed through the newcomers community, I understood steemit and what it all represents. It is a decentralised social media platform that allows everyone to interact, have freedom to connect, and create avenues for creating quality content.

The newcomers community is that when a user passes through, at least 80 per cent of how to use the platform is guaranteed. It also alllows users to engage in problem solving by themselves. That is being self-reliant. The different tools that are available like the steemworld are important tools that support blogging experience.

I can now look at contests, engagement challenge publications from the steemitblog, and disconnect to participate. Not forgetting engaging other user posts meaningfully.

Above all, being steadfast and consistent in what we do is key. I've watched him grow no matter how much he fights and struggles to climb the mountain. One thing is that he doesn't quit or give up due to challenges or no support.

1. What are the perceived benefits? Has your support increased?

Like I said in my last paragraph, my mentor has continued to add up SPs in his wallet no matter how little or big it drops, not minding that supports come in or not. And this is my take-home strategy from him. Consistency no matter the support level.

I also ensure I belong to a club status which allows me to save more this time. If the required big support like every other user have been experienced by me, maybe I would say my support has increased. Remember this isnsually thr motivation for a better blogging experience.

However, I am growing my SP gradually and as well ensuring I am following a clubstatus for growth.

Thank you, community friends. This is my entry submission for the contest. I hope to join more contests from the community.

I hope @bela90, @hisgeneral, and @eveetim joins the contest before its expiration.
