About

My name is Akshay, and I am in 9th grade and currently living in Cupertino, California. I love coding (my prime language is Python) and math, and do many online competitions such as USACO, Codeforces, and AMC 10. In my spare time, I enjoy watching motorcycle racing and playing basketball.

You checked prior knowledge effectively by administering a pretest and tailoring your explanations based on learners' responses. For example, you clarified the meaning of x² when Pranava expressed confusion and revisited question 16 when Avedis needed further clarification. You engaged learners by encouraging them to explain their approaches to solving problems, such as Avedis’ explanation of fraction division and Pranava’s alternative method for handling decimals. However, providing more opportunities for learners to solve problems independently before reviewing them together could further enhance engagement. Summarizing progress at the end of each topic could also help confirm understanding.
