Multiple approaches might help—if a subject is predominantly taught one way, then people who don’t learn well that way seem worse off.
Being comfortable with a subject might require being good at it. Being good at it might require practice. Practice might require not fearing failure*. (A sense of play is ideal. That which is self driven can last—it will be practiced and retained, or relearned if not, when it proves to be missing. Absent practice things aren’t learned once, but multiple times.)
*Ugh fields (aversion to X) are built from smaller ugh fields (aversion to failure), in this model. Given the impact of spaced repetition on learning “information”, repetition might have something to do with “aversions”—they are learned.
