My middle school son got a perfect score on his performance assessment after a one-point lesson in jump rope

‌
He had been preparing for a few weeks because there was a jump rope performance assessment during school PE class,
but he was really bad at the "X-pattern" jump.
I know someone who played baseball in middle and high school, and I heard that when they practice jump rope a lot, they do about 4,000 to 5,000 jumps a day, so I went to them for a one-point lesson. lol
It turned out the cause of his struggle was actually the jump rope itself.
His rope was too thin and lacked tension, so he tried using his own rope instead, and he did much better.
It was a beaded jump rope.
They gave advice on basic jumps and X-pattern jumps, and my son followed the advice; after about 30 minutes of lessons, he improved significantly.
He practiced hard for the next 2 to 3 weeks, and fortunately, he did well on the test day and received a perfect score for the assessment.
As for the lesson fee, I gave them a fruit gift set for the holidays and treated them to lunch.
I guess it's the same for any sport—even in golf, you need lessons to get better.
If you are struggling, I recommend finding an expert nearby and seeking guidance. lol
