My Project

Not every student fully understands all the content during class. Sometimes, additional help can be beneficial. However, there are instances when students cannot stay at school for an extended period after classes, and the time for teachers to provide assistance is limited. Some students, especially those facing prolonged absences due to illness or personal reasons, are in such situations. Assigning tasks through Google Classroom to these students, without a clear understanding of the concepts, can pose challenges.

In such cases, teachers can meet with students via video calls to provide brief explanations of concepts, assisting them in completing assignments.

Additionally, when students encounter difficulties understanding certain aspects of their homework at home, they can ask teachers questions through video calls.

During the grading season, some students may find it challenging to conclude their grades due to absences. In such instances, teachers can contact students via video calls to help them complete unfinished assignments, preventing academic setbacks.

Communication with students through iPads can facilitate successful completion of classes for all students and enable teachers to provide tailored education. As each student learns at a different pace, teachers can offer one-on-one advice and assist students in managing their grades.

Establishing a strong foundation in mathematics is crucial. A well-established foundation is necessary for a proper understanding of and progression through subsequent stages. Through your support, students will receive continuous education not only during school hours but also in after-school sessions. This will help more students successfully pass their math classes and build a solid foundation for learning in subsequent stages.
