Practice makes progress, never perfect! | Fatima Kazmi | TEDxYouth@Edina

Practice makes perfect. What unintended effects does this phrase have on young people who hear it? Is there a better way to think about our everyday practices? Fatima Kazmi is a 5th Grader at Creek Valley Elementary School. She is talented at math and science, and loves presenting her STEAM projects at school. She enjoys playing the piano, scootering with her sister, making videos for her YouTube channel, and creating art, including a project that was chosen for an exhibition at the Edina Library this year. She is a member of the Math Olympiad, and a Minnesota Junior Musical Festival awarded pianist. In addition, she volunteers frequently, at both a senior living facility by playing piano for the residents and with the non-profit CFHK by creating colorful cards for hospitalized kids. After realizing the phrase ‘Practice Makes Perfect’ is outdated and harmful, she created her TEDx talk, in hopes that it will raise awareness about the harmful standards of perfectionism among youth. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx
