The attainments of low achievers and high achievers are very different. Teachers need to seek out the appropriate level of explanation to promote all ofthe pupils’ motivation. Ifwe emphasis the acquisition Offundamental knowledge and skills for the pupils, high achievers may lose their motivation to learn. Ifwe prepare only problems which need high competencies, low achievers cannot keep up with the class. We need to seek out the appropriate level of difficulty for lessons so that all of the pupils can be happy with the lessons._____________________________________ |

Large differences exist in the attainment of pupils. Pupils attending cramming schools can finish tasks very quickly. Pupils can set up individual goals in individual learning sessions. Pupils seem motivated to learn mathematics in this way._________________________________________________ |

I think that it is most important to support the pupils according to individual need.________________________________________________________________ |

Pupils in my class can be divided into three groups. One group is for the pupils who have already learned the content at cramming school. Another group is for the pupils, who can understand my explanations. The rest is for the pupils, who have difficulties in understanding my explanations. While pupils are doing exercises, I go directly to pupils explaining difficulties. Pupils can have break time after they complete the appointed tasks. I continue to teach the pupils who have not finished through break time. |

After I explain the main principles and ask the class some questions and make them answer, to confirm most of them have understood the learning content, I have an individual learning session. The textbook contains exercises. While pupils are doing these exercises, I normally walk between the desks and support the pupils who cannot complete the exercises by themselves. One third of pupils in a class need individual support. I give pupils a pre-test soon after the academic year starts. I select several pupils, who need support. In the individual learning sessions, I try to support these pupils as much as possible.______________________________________________ |

Pupils can know which problems they have not mastered by themselves. While I make them do exercises, ɪ observe how they are dealing with the problems, understand the extent to which they have mastered the content and think out how I can support their needs. In this sense, keeping time for doing individual exercises is very important.________________________________ |

Children may forget how they have found the answer sooner or later. So, making them do exercises repeatedly is very important to ensure their understanding.__________________________________________________________ |

The individual teaching method may satisfy individual differences, but I believe that all of the pupils can achieve mastery up to a certain level. I think it is better to encourage both high achievers and low achievers to help other. I ask the pupils who have finished earlier to write their solution on the blackboard. Thus, these pupils learn the same problem twice, once in their notebook and then on the blackboard, ɪ let them write out the thinking process, so these pupils also notice their misunderstandings. Slow learners can learn from high achievers. Higher achievers can explain to their peers more plainly than the teacher.____________________________________________ |
