more face to face tuition ,
less online worksheets "
Our aim is to listen to our students and parents concerns , and hence to concentrate on face to face learning, as most students struggle with purely remote online learning methods such Zoom , Microsoft Teams , etc.
We will endeavour, as far as possible, to help our students on a face to face basis, as the primary form of tuition .
Online platforms have a place in student's learning options, but as have been shown, even at institutions of higher learning such as universities, it is by no means a magic wand to replace traditional one on one modes of tuition.
If a student struggles with a question at home he / she is free to Whatsapp the question and if possible , a suitable answer , explanation will be given as soon as possible , or if need be , the student can bring it to the next session to get an explanation , or more exercises to cover the topic.
During exam times or test weeks , times for tuition can be changed to accommodate the student,'s exam schedule.
Sessions can be rescheduled to when the student is writing Maths , so as not to clash with other exam subjects and practicals.
Each holiday , students can register for classes to do the next terms topic(s) beforehand , or to revise a topic from the previous term they were struggling with.
Face to Face NBT classes are held with grade 12s , working through NBT type questions , and doing the theory of grade 11 and 12 topics necessary for the type of questions asked.
With more and more students doing home schooling , students can book to do any topic of their choice where they feel they are struggling , such as Euclidean geometry or trigonometry
