Does More Home Work Means More Marks? - An Insight by Effektiv Lernen




What raises the interest of a student? Is it going to a good school, having more friends or receiving less homework? Like every parent, you too want the best for your kids. You can divide teachers into two categories – one who wishes the best for their students and second ones are teachers who often burden the students with unlimited homework, leaving a little room for personal time. Homework has always been a prominent part of a school’s education process. Most of the time, excessive homework creates an unfavorable condition for the student and leaves little room for creativity & personality development.

How much work is enough?
In most progressive counties, homework is set according to the 10-minute rule, which means students from first grade will receive homework only for 10 minutes per day. The time scale increases from 10 minutes to 20 minutes for the second standard. The dedicated time for homework ranges between 10 minutes to 120 minutes. Effektiv Lernen is an exceptional team of private tutors who are providing quality private education in elementary and private schools. What we have seen is that schools often burden students with more than three times the workload than the suggested timeframe.

Practicing is better than being busy
One tutor is giving 80 minutes of homework for 8th standard students while the other gives only 30 minutes’ homework. Which one is better? Practically, the answer is hard to infer since you can’t always equate time with quality. A classroom is a place where students learn new things and at home, they need to repeat what they already learned at the school. Now the problem is most teachers don’t follow that protocol. They are busy is burdening students with additional tasks without attending their doubts.

Such kind of approach often leaves learning gaps in students which affects their studies in the future. At Effektiv Lernen, we focus more on clearing the fundamental gaps in students by creating a motivational and challenging environment.

How Our Private Mathe Nachhilfe Zürich Is Helping Students Struggling from Mathematics?

Well, there are two ways to know a student’s weak point in math. You can either ask them or you can conduct a test and do the assessment by yourselves. Although the first process is easy and less time consuming but the results are not always reliable since most students feel too shy to ask for help. In our career at Effektiv Lernen, we have met several cases where students don’t like to reveal their weaknesses with the fear of getting judged. Therefore, before getting started with students, we often conduct a few tests from different grade levels to figure out the problematic area of students.   What comes after the test? 1.
