Study supports back-to-basics approach

| ,

A recent study by Johns Hopkins University supports back-to-basics approach which is used at our BrainBuilder centres. This research found that there are two critical educational strategies that boost students’ performance:

  1. Students perform best when introduced to questions scaffolding from Easy-to-Hard.
  2. Students need constant feedback to increase motivation and boost performance.

At BrainBuilder™, our programs are designed and built using high-quality and well-researched learning methods.

For instance, our students are introduced to maths concepts using the ‘scaffolding’ approach which gradually increases the level from Easy-to-Hard to help build confidence and solve more challenging problems. Moreover, our well-trained teachers are constantly providing feedback to students within a nurturing classroom environment, with small student-to-teacher ratio to help motivate them to perform at their best.
