Be a coach, not just a teacher! Coach professional, understand, reason, help students grasp concepts, score knowledge, & excel in exams. Encourage learning with new resources, videos, online tools, and asking questions. Focus on individual weaknesses and strengths, offer English improvement, optional notes, and assist in project completion without doing it for them.

Be a coach to student • We are not just a ‘teacher’ • We are the ‘COACH’ • Coach
Understanding • Reasoning Help them to 'understand' not just ‘score’ SCORE 90%, 95%, 99% • Concept • Our aim is not just getting more marks in exams • Our aim is to ‘teach concepts’ and ‘impart knowledge’ • We consider ‘Scoring’ as a by-product • We explain how to use knowledge to score marks • Why to write Essay • How understand ‘comprehension’ to give heading • Etc. SCORE KNOWLEDGE
Use new resources to make them learn better Use Models Use animation Use Videos Encourage them to learn online
Encourage them to ask questions • Many teachers and people don’t encourage asking questions • We encourage our students to ask questions • We try to answers all their query, not only academic but other fields as well • We encourage them to look for answers and alternatives
Ask higher level student to give their support • In future, we have a plan (on Test basis), that we will provide senior students to help junior students • This is based on the concept that ‘Learning is Best when you teach someone’ • Any willing student devote 1-2 hours per week to help junior students • This will be purely on ‘volunteer’ basis
Focus on individual's weak points • Everyone has weak and strong points • We will try to notice the weak and strong points of individual student • Focus will be given on individual’s weak points to overcome the issue • Put more emphasis on strong points
Focus on English as a side activity • One important skill in current environment is command in English language • We have seen that even English medium students are not very good in English • Very few students can speak English • We will provide extra training for improving English • The focus will be on general English, i.e. understanding and speaking, NOT based on course.
Option for printed Notes • Taking notes is one of important way of learning • Sometimes students just busy on writing notes • Many students lose focus what is being taught because they keep taking notes instead of learning • Some students are slow in taking notes • Some notes are ‘fixed’ type • We will have an option for some topics where printed notes will be available on actual price (i.e. page/print cost).
Help them to make Project • Nowadays most of the schools expects students to prepare projects • Most of time there is no guidance from school • Parents are forced to work on projects • Many times projects are ‘bought’ from outside • This makes whole procedure as useless. • We will provide help and guidance to students to complete a project on own • We will NOT make projects, but help and guide to learn and make use of this process.
