My Tutoring Approach via MS Teams

I have developed a lesson structure that supports students of all abilities, helping them build confidence and a deep understanding of each topic. Here is how my sessions are organised:

1. Clear Objectives: I begin each session with a PowerPoint that introduces the learning objective, so you know exactly what we will cover.

2. Assessing Prior Knowledge: I will ask a few questions to gauge what you already know. This helps me understand how much depth to go into for each topic.

3. Step-by-Step Content: I break down the content into manageable slides, guiding you through the material bit-by-bit. I will also ask questions along the way to check your understanding and keep you engaged.

4. Interactive Activities: I include activities that let you apply what you are learning, reinforcing key concepts in a hands-on way.

5. Supplemental Videos: Sometimes, I will show videos to provide a broader perspective, helping you connect individual concepts to the bigger picture.

6. Exam-Style Practice: At the end of each lesson, I will test your knowledge with an exam-style question and give detailed feedback based on the mark scheme.

7. Follow-Up Resources: After each lesson, I will provide additional resources and practice questions with answer keys. This way, you can review independently and understand exactly what is needed to achieve full marks.

I have used this method with many students, and it has proven to be effective for all ability levels.
