Hello GMV+
You have been trusted in the training of our future Gamemaster. This guide is the player's first step into becoming a GM and helping the community, so make sure you keep them engaged and Happy. Finally, Thank you for doing this!
People Learn Differently - There are 4 Different types of learners: Visual Learners, Auditory Learners, Kinaesthetic (Tactile) learners, and Reading/Writing learners. These types of learners have several different ways to learn; some could even be multiple. A Visual Learner likes to see things. Auditory learners want to hear something, so you should read the document to them. Kinaesthetic learners want to do the action, so let them do the activity of a GM (let them drop a drop pod), and Reading Learners like to read it themselves. So the following things you can do to keep them engaged:
Read the SOP out load to them along with the Guide.
Let them have a go (e.g., let them spawn some stuff)
Check Understanding by asking questions about each section and reviewing what they've missed
Be Engaging - The GM Guidelines are a lot of Text; this is important as the World of GM is complex, so be as engaging as you can.
Don't Lose your Temper - Training GMs is an important Job, and People may get it better than you; that's okay. That's why you're here.
Make sure to stay calm and collected and explain it best.
Make Sure to Cover it all - You go through everything, so they know how to use it.
Hidden Issues - Some of our Player Base is disabled; they may have issues affecting their learning.
It's incredible that you're doing this and helping the GM Team Grow. We thank you for this. If you have any issues, reach out to the Senior GMs.
