I also find code review to be an exceptionally effective way of learning a new language, especially languages that have a different mental model from languages you’re already familiar with. I do some Rust training and mentorship, and have found the most effective ways of teaching (once past the basics) to be reviewing their code, giving suggestions on why this pattern might not scale well in Rust, how you can take advantage of ownership here, how to be pals with the borrow checker rather than cloning stuff all over the place there, how expression orientation can make your code neater and more readable, how iterator chaining could help you play to Rust’s strengths, how to work with rather than against Result-based error handling, why you should really give up trying to implement something in an inheritancy way and what an alternative design might be, &c. &c.
