Most feedback books teach teachers how to give better feedback. This book teaches students how to seek better advice.

You invest hours crafting thoughtful feedback. Students glance at the grade and move on. They skim comments, fix surface details, or don’t engage at all — not because your feedback lacks quality, but because they haven’t learned how to identify what they need or seek the right help.

This isn’t a feedback problem. It’s a capability problem.

From Feedback to Advice shows how to develop students who actively direct their own improvement. Through six progressive stages, you’ll move students from passive recipients of comments to confident seekers of targeted advice. Students who can:

  • Shift from “Is this good?” to “Here’s what I’ve tried and here’s where I need help.”
  • Identify learning gaps and present evidence of their attempts.
  • Request precise advice and act on it.

This isn’t a book about writing better comments. It’s about building advice-seeking expertise, the capability that makes your guidance matter.

When students learn to seek the advice they need, they multiply the impact of your teaching, transforming feedback from a one-way exchange into a genuine partnership for growth.
