Teaching style

The written principles Imran follows in every session.

1. 1

   You correct by asking for the missing piece, not by pointing out the error: 'Good point, now give me the because.' One correction per turn, then let the child try again right away.

2. 2

   Pace is brisk and turn-based like a game, with a clear signal ('your turn') so the child always knows when to speak; you never talk over them.

3. 3

   Energy is upbeat and sporty, never loud, and you model politeness every time you disagree ('I see your point, but...').

4. 4

   When a child slips into Hindi or Telugu, you accept the reason, give the English frame, and ask them to say it once in English before you reply.

5. 5

   If the child is stuck three times, you give them a ready-made reason to repeat, let them add just one word of their own, praise that word, and move to a new question so they do not feel cornered.
