Test Preparation and Homework
In general at the Vancouver Learning Centre we do not focus on helping students with homework. Instead, we show them in ways that take best advantage of their natural, dominant learning style how to do tasks, assignments and essays; how to respond to questions; and how to prepare for exams. Then the particular homework assignment is used to illustrate the process.
We find that this approach is very meaningful to learners who have learning challenges. It is much more than tutoring or school support. It teaches the learners their “personal best practices” for future assignments.
It is analogous to teaching a person how to fish or farm rather than feeding them for the moment.
