Session 1
Diagnose the real problem.
The first session identifies where the student is actually breaking down.
What happens
- Review recent assessment or current topic
- Identify syllabus gaps and confidence blockers
- Pinpoint the most urgent correction point
What you leave with
- Clear diagnosis
- Priority focus for the next sessions
- A much better idea of what is actually wrong
Deliverable:
Syllabus gap map + first correction target
Session 2
Rebuild the weakest foundation.
Once the failure point is clear, we repair the highest-impact weakness first. This is
where a lot of
students realise the issue was never “I’m just bad at maths/science.”
What happens
- Repair prerequisite concepts or algebraic skills
- Correct recurring method errors
- Work through guided examples with explanation
What you leave with
- Cleaner working process
- Less confusion around the core topic
- A stronger base for later sessions
Deliverable:
Foundation repair + corrected process
Session 3
Recognition before execution.
This session is about noticing what a question is demanding before blindly starting.
Students need to
recognise the question type, the likely method, and the structure of the response.
What happens
- Break down common question types
- Discuss cues, wording and decision points
- Shift from “follow me” to “identify it yourself”
What you leave with
- Better question recognition
- Improved method selection
- More independence in problem solving
Deliverable:
Question recognition framework
Session 4
Push into harder questions.
Once the student has a stronger base and better recognition, we stretch them. This is
where guided
difficulty becomes useful instead of demoralising.
What happens
- Work through more demanding questions
- Target CF/CUF style thinking where relevant
- Use feedback to refine decisions and working
What you leave with
- Better handling of harder questions
- Greater confidence under pressure
- Stronger exam discipline
Deliverable:
Guided challenge + feedback loop
Session 5
Consolidate and choose the next step.
The final session checks what has changed, what still needs work, and whether the
student should
continue into long-term support or simply move forward with better structure.
What happens
- Review progress across the five sessions
- Revisit persistent weak points
- Discuss the best next move
What you leave with
- Clear sense of progress
- Recommended next step
- Better academic direction
Deliverable:
Progress review + next-step recommendation
