[quote=Anonymous]Well it's not that she's Brazilian, it's that she's from a country with very different ways of doing things we take for granted. Some APs can just pick it up faster, others are slower and some just never get it. You can continue to explain things a lot but I think you need to challenge their mindset. They need to be proactive and able to think through some solutions to problems before coming to you, along with being flexible and eager to adopt change. I have similar issues with my interns at work. Some of them just aren't easy to teach - so I try to teach them methodology along with individual tasks, so they become easier to teach. And I do the same with our APs.[/quote]
