אִם רָאִיתָ תַּלְמִיד שֶׁלִּמּוּדוֹ קָשֶׁה עָלָיו כְּבַרְזֶל-בִּשְׁבִיל מִשְׁנָתוֹ שֶׁאֵינָהּ סְדוּרָה עָלָיו

ביטוי (אנגלית)

If you see a student whose learning is as hard for him as iron—it is because his Mishnah is not organized for him

הגדרה (אנגלית)

If a student struggles to understand the study material, the reason may be a lack of method and order in the way the material is presented to him.

(Reish Lakish said: 'If you see a student whose learning is as hard for him as iron—it is because his Mishnah is not organized for him' – Ta'anit 7a)
