Online Class Format and Suggestions

 Take the class in a well-lit and quite room in order to avoid

reverberation. Ask the students to switch off their mic and raise hands
before speaking.
 Wait for at least 5-8 students to join-in and then start the class.
 Ask whether Audible or Not.
 Greet them with a Hi/ Hello. Call out all their names once. And if
someone has not joined with their own name, politely ask them to
change it.
 Start with an Introduction (about the tutor, LYUM and Subject and Topic
they will be learning today) Ask them how they are doing? Did they
enjoy the last class?
 Ask for Recording Permission
 Tell them about what we are learning today. Ask them if they have any
prior knowledge about that particular topic.
 Share your Slides; ask if the screen is visible.
 Start Teaching. Call out their names if they are not responding. Ask
Questions in between. When they answer then make use of encouraging
words. (E.g. Aree Waah! Bohot Badhiya!, Good, etc). And always take
their names.
 Take constant feedback from students( samaj aa raha hai na?) Ask if they
have any doubts or questions.
 If a student or two is very actively interacting then talk to them, ask
them follow up questions, encourage them and say something like (Very
good Riya. Tumhe toh saare ans aate hai, Lagta hai Maths tumhara
favourite subject hoga Or Aree Waah Tum toh kafi hoshiyar ho.)
 Use Hindi language mostly. But avoid technical/difficult Hindi words
(shudh hindi). As students are from villages of UP so avoid the jargon
and make use everyday hindi words only.
 Duration of Class: Not more than 45mins (with teaching time of 30-35
mins only).
 Last 10-15 mins could be used for interactive games/ fun activities.
 End the class by thanking them. And ask them to come again for the next
class on this this date (as per the Time Table).
