Teaching Keys
Educators, as well as students, have much to gain from appreciating individualized strengths. Teachers who teach to student’s individual learning strengths (i.e. natural learning preferences), tend to find that students are retaining more new information and increasing their understanding of the subject matter. Teachers may also find students to be more motivated to achieve and more apt to move from one year to the next as opposed to dropping out.This programme utilises the LearningKeys™ report, a student-friendly personalised profile that uncovers a youth’s personality (DISC), learning (AVK), thinking (LITE) style – to optimise a student’s learning ability.

TeachingKeys™ System
How do I engage students better? What better ways to attract, retain, and even regain their attention? How can I improve my teaching, and maximise my students learning?
