1. Check-In (First 5 Minutes)
We start by clearing the air. You bring whatever felt stuck this week could be a messy homework question, a mock paper that went wrong, or just a general sense of dread about an upcoming topic. No guessing games and no pretending you already understand.
2. Fixing the issue (Next 25 Minutes)
If a quadratic equation or fraction rule isn't clicking, it's usually because an earlier building block is shaky. We pause, fix that exact issue without judgment, and practice it together until it feels automatic rather than memorised.
3. Working It Together (Next 20 Minutes)
Using a shared digital whiteboard (or pen and paper side-by-side in person), you talk me through the steps while I act as a safety net, nudging you when you get stuck rather than jumping in with the answer, so you can do it on your own.
4. Wrapping up and your takeaway (Last 10 Minutes)
We summarise the one or two big ideas from the session. Then complete the notes for it so you wont get stuck again and a manageable set of practice questions (only if you want them) to lock it in before next week.
