The Quest is divided into two different parts. Here’s a step-by-step guide on how to complete “Teach Me a Lesson” Part 1 in Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom:
- Visit Hateno Village: While exploring Hateno Village and assisting with the local mayoral election, make your way to the Hateno School.

- Attend Symin’s Lesson: During a school session, speak with Symin to initiate the quest. He shares a story about The Calamity, but the students remain skeptical, regarding it as a mere legend due to its ancient nature.
- Obtain a Picture of The Calamity: Symin explains that one of the students requires photographic evidence to believe in The Calamity. Your task is to find a picture to prove the tragic event occurred.
- Journey to Kakariko Village: Head to Pyah and Impa’s house in Kakariko Village. Ascend to the upper floor, where you’ll discover an old tapestry depicting The Calamity.

- Present the Picture: When the school session begins, reveal the picture to the students, concluding the first part of the quest.
- Receive a Reward: Symin expresses gratitude for the picture, rewarding you with Hylian Rice. Keep it safely, as it will be needed for the quest’s second part.
With this step-by-step guide, you’re ready to embark on the “Teach Me a Lesson” quest, guiding the children of Hateno Village to embrace the truth behind The Calamity and uncover the rich history of Hyrule.
For the Second Part of the quest here’s a step-by-step guide: Starting “Teach Me a Lesson: Part Two” and Unlocking “Uma’s Garden”
- Introduction: After the previous history lesson, Symin now focuses on culinary arts, teaching the children about cooking with Monster Extract. However, the kids remain unconvinced of its potential. Symin wishes he had Monster Curry to prove its worth.
- Gather Ingredients: To make Monster Curry, you need three key ingredients: Hylian Rice, Goron Spice, and Monster Extract.
- Acquire Goron Spice: Visit the general store in Goron Village to purchase Goron Spice, one of the necessary ingredients for Monster Curry.
- Find Monster Extract: Symin mentions that Monster Extract can be obtained in Tarrey Town. Head to Tarrey Town and search for Monster Extract to complete the ingredient list.
- Wait for the Next School Day: Similar to the previous quest, wait for the next school day to continue the quest.
- Return to Hateno School: Once the school day arrives, return to Hateno School with the completed Monster Curry dish in your possession.
- Convince the Kids: Present the Monster Curry to the skeptical children, aiming to change their perspective on cooking with Monster Extract.
- Claim Your Reward: Symin, impressed by your efforts, offers the opportunity to use the school’s field to grow your crops. To begin this new quest line, “Uma’s Garden,” head outside to talk to Uma near the field.
By following these steps, you can start “Teach Me a Lesson: Part Two” and unlock the exciting quest line, “Uma’s Garden,” as a reward. Prepare to showcase the wonders of Monster Curry to the kids and embark on your new gardening journey in Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom.
