Framework:

We conduct a 2-hour session once a week every Friday.

Each 2 hour session would be divided into a Science lesson as well as a Mathematics Lesson.

Teamwork:
Our team of 6 is divided into 2 committees, the Maths and Science committees.
Each committee will be in charge of each week’s Maths and Science parts of the Rainbow lesson respectively.
In addition, these roles are divided amongst us: leader, secretary, webmaster, reflections compiler, PowerPoint presentation preparer
We meet up every Wednesday to discuss the week’s lesson plan, and everyone will rotate in their committee to get a chance to prepare a lesson once in every 3 weeks.

Strategies:
Keep ourselves updated on latest findings in education realm to add value to our lessons
Attending Meet the People sessions in Teck Ghee to better understand the needs of low-income families and be able to better relate to tutees
Bring tutees out on excursions (eg. To Science Centre Omnitheatre) so learning will not be confined to just the classroom

                               

Research on learning styles, survey tutees’ learning styles and make use of our knowledge on their learning styles to better suit our lessons for them
The lessons are catered especially to the different learning styles of the tutees, of which we have identified

(1) Kinesthetic
(2) Visual
(3) Auditory

to be the most common learning styles amongst our tutees.

Therefore, lessons are catered to their different learning styles so as to maximise the potential for learning. To better understand how we work, you may want to refer to our Service Framework.
