As a student, I have experienced numerous different teaching styles and found that lessons that begin with looking over previous content and checking that the student is sure of it work well. Then moving into the lesson where the topic is explained and shown, then done together with the teacher and student and finally done independently. After this stage, the teacher is able to check over the answers (repeating several steps of the process if necessary) and finally evaluating whether more work needs to be done on said topic. However although this is effective, switching up the style of the lesson and making it more fun- especially towards younger children- keeps them more engaged in the learning and truly ensures they grasp the concept they are being shown. Using experiences similar to their age range in example questions or friends and family’s names can also keep them interested in the work they are doing.
