Approach to Grinds:

Tailored Lesson Plans: Customise lesson plans based on the student's current level of understanding, learning style, and specific areas of interest or weakness.

Interactive Discussions: Encourage open dialogue and critical thinking through discussions about historical events, literary works, and themes. This can help deepen understanding and foster analytical skills.

Active Learning Techniques: Incorporate activities such as debates, role-playing, or simulations to make the subjects come alive. For example, acting out historical events or analysing characters from literature can provide a deeper understanding.

Use of Multimedia Resources: Integrate various multimedia resources like documentaries, podcasts, online articles, and primary sources to provide a rich learning experience and cater to different learning preferences.

Writing Practice and Feedback: Assign writing tasks such as essays, analyses, or creative writing assignments related to the subject matter. Provide constructive feedback to help improve writing skills and critical analysis.

Socratic Questioning: Engage the student in critical thinking by asking thought-provoking questions that encourage them to analyse, evaluate, and draw connections between different concepts or historical events.

Personalised Support: Offer individualised attention and support to address specific challenges or areas where the student may be struggling. This can include additional explanations, examples, or supplementary materials.

Regular Assessments: Conduct periodic assessments to gauge the student's progress and identify areas that require further attention. This could include quizzes, tests, or informal check-ins during sessions.

Encourage Reading: Recommend relevant books, articles, or primary sources to supplement classroom learning and encourage a deeper understanding of the subject matter.

Foster a Positive Learning Environment: Create a supportive and encouraging atmosphere where the student feels comfortable asking questions, sharing ideas, and making mistakes as part of the learning process.
