The learning framework

Anatomy of a focused lesson

Each session moves from a clear question to guided exploration and a check for understanding.

10 minutes

Wonder and question

Start with a real-world math question and connect it to what the student already knows.

25 minutes

Explore together

Work through examples, diagrams, investigations, or writing with tutor guidance and student participation.

10 minutes

Check for mastery

Use a short practice task to identify what is secure and what should come next.
