Not a teacher only a native.

'Spare no effort' means put all your energy into doing something. Do the job as best you can.

If one spares no effort in doing something, one does everything necessary.

:up: To see how this idiom works, consider the opposite. You're trying very hard to do something, and a friend says 'You might as well spare yourself the effort.' If you 'spare no effort', you ignore that advice.
