Core Teaching Framework: Three Stages & Three Steps

Three Stages of Learning

  • Unit Sync: Reinforce in-class lessons with phonics practice, text reading/imitation, topic-aligned listening & speaking drills, vocabulary exercises, fun dubbing, unit tests, and real-time AI conversations tied to textbook themes.
  • Phase Review: Target exam readiness with specialized listening & speaking training, intelligent essay grading, full mock tests (mirroring official exam interfaces), and skill-building workshops focused on common test-taking pitfalls.
  • Holiday Consolidation: Keep skills sharp during breaks with leveled reading, themed dubbing, holiday homework packages, and current events reading to expand global awareness.

Three Steps for Skill Mastery

  • Modular Teaching: Break down listening and speaking skills into digestible modules, with clear explanations of knowledge points and test-taking strategies for both classroom instruction and self-paced learning.
  • Assignment & Analytics: Teachers can assign tailored tasks, create custom exams, and access detailed student performance data to track progress and identify gaps.
  • Error Reinforcement: Students receive targeted feedback on mistakes, with personalized practice sets to strengthen weak areas and avoid repeated errors.

Key Content Modules

  • Text Reading & Imitation: AI-powered scoring helps students mimic native pronunciation and intonation, building natural language sense.
  • AI Dialogue: Real-time conversations with an AI tutor, aligned to unit themes, let students practice speaking in low-pressure scenarios—no fear of judgment, with instant feedback on fluency, grammar, and vocabulary.
