A really interesting interview about the lessons already learned by NATO. Short version: The Ukrainians are also doing a lot of the teaching, NATO has no real experience on this type of conflict.
Interesting analysis, lots of credit given to Ukrainians ability to learn, adapt and innovate.
Post-war, Ukrainians will probably have the best operators of some western equipment. Gen. Hodges for example mentioned that while theoretically NATO has the systems in place to do counterfire artillery strikes, they haven't actually done it in real life in ages.
Electronic warfare is an area mentioned where NATO is seriously lacking, especially when it comes to providing it in scale to counter the massive numbers of drones a modern battlefield might see. Just generally adapting to drones is a big deal.
