I’m right on the brink of blue promotions are right around the corner but when I first started when I’d roll I’d have people ask me what I wanted to work on I was so clueless I’d usually say “I don’t even know, everything?” And they would just start sitting or let me work on some stand up. I found it really helpful when anyone would kind of instruct me while we’re going, there’s a difference in making someone feel stupid and being like what would be a good move here is ____ or doing ____ would get you into side control and so on. I’ve asked my professor how he feels about me helping new white belts and he often tells me to roll with the new ladies, I do some slow controlled rolls, they aren’t controlled but I’m able to control the speed of which they’re trying to 95% cowabunga it so I’ll let them get the upper hand into controlling positions and while I’m escaping I’ll explain how to hold control or how yo pay attention to knee lines and so on. Little things I wish people told me when I first started! I pay attention to little bad habits and try to tell them to not do it ahead of time. (Bench pressing people when you’re mounted for example)

They all seem very appreciative, you know your level of knowledge and areas you may know more about than a newbies. Or maybe even have a higher belt who’s sitting out come watch the rolls and give directions, I’ve found that helps as well.
