The structure of lessons will be very much dependent on the individual, for some setting homework can provide a great opportunity to consolidate what has been learnt but for others this may not prove to be effective. I aim to firstly get to know each individual and then plan lessons based on how they learn and what I think will be beneficial for their learning. Before every lesson I will create lesson plans and target those areas I believe need to be explored, but it is important I understand that some degree of flexibility is required and while structure is important to meet syllabus, some topics may require more focus than others. Thus, I really aim to cater to the needs of each individual while considering the academic requirements that must be met.

From my experience each exam board do have different ways of testing individuals, the best way to understand how each differ is through familiarisation of past papers and the way in which they approach testing. Past papers and answers provide a great opportunity to both see what a board are looking for but also, how to apply successful structure to your own answers.
