Abstract
Giving and receiving constructive feedback is a valuable skill and an evolving process due to improved understanding and changes in culture. This article provides a practical review of key elements of effective feedback skills and strategies for providing constructive feedback, with a focus on how to address recipients who may have impaired insight into the issue at hand. Commonly known tips and tricks include direct, immediate, and specific feedback delivered in a safe setting and in a conversational manner. This article specifically considers how the feedback will be heard or accepted by the intended recipient, in order for the educator to best overcome hurdles in relaying constructive criticism.
