4. Guided Practice and Feedback

Providing opportunities for guided practice
followed by constructive feedback ensures
that tutoring sessions are focused and
effective. This technique helps students

refine their understanding and correct errors
in real-time.
How to implement:
Assign a complex task that requires
collaboration, such as solving a case
study or creating a project plan.
Guide students as they work, offering
hints and corrective suggestions as
needed.
Conduct a feedback session where
students evaluate their performance and
discuss improvements.
Example: During a chemistry experiment,
students work together to balance a
chemical equation while the teacher
observes and provides input.

5. Scaffolded Tutoring

Scaffolding involves gradually reducing
teacher support as students gain confidence
and independence. This approach helps
students develop problem-solving and critical
thinking skills while ensuring that no group is
left behind.
How to implement:
Begin with detailed instructions and close
supervision.

Gradually transition to open-ended tasks
that require self-reliance.
Encourage peer support as a primary
resource before seeking teacher
intervention.
Example: In a group writing exercise, the
teacher provides a structured outline initially,
then asks students to develop their own
arguments and collaborate on revisions.
