I have had experience teaching students at kumon and tutoring privately too. The purpose of my initial lesson will be to assess and understand the students basic competencies and then to solidify base level knowledge before building up. I will achieve this by using a range of techniques, particularly the socratic method of teaching, which allows the student to not only learn but understand. This, in addition to repetition tasks for memorisation and technique training (particularly for sciences) will help them to achieve the best possible marks for GCSE and A level. I myself have used these techniques at school and also at university whilst studying medicine and can attest that these have worked for both me and my students. I also like to end my lessons with a small progress quiz, which allows me to have an ongoing assessment of my student's level of knowledge and the effectiveness of the techniques I am using. It also gives me an opportunity to modify and adjust the teaching strategies and enables me to create tailored teaching schedules for my students.
