🌟 WHAT WILL BE TAUGHT? Students will be taught how to tackle the ACT Reading section, focusing on three key areas: Key Ideas and Details, Craft and Structure, and Integration of Knowledge and Ideas. Each module will break down specific strategies for answering different types of questions effectively and efficiently. 🎥 HOW WILL YOU TEACH? Each module includes pre-recorded lessons with slides and video clips to explain key strategies. Students will work through practice questions, submit answers through Google Forms, and get immediate feedback on their performance. 👩🏫 WHAT'S YOUR TEACHING STYLE? My teaching style is clear, engaging, and focused on independent learning. Lessons are broken down into manageable sections, and students receive instant, automatic feedback to track their progress. HOW MUCH WILL LEARNERS GET TO INTERACT WITH YOU? 💬 While this is a self-paced course with no live meetings, learners will still have opportunities to ask questions via the classroom messaging feature. Teacher will respond to student messages within 24 hours. Automatic feedback on quizzes helps learners identify areas for improvement as they move through the course. HOW LONG WILL IT TAKE TO COMPLETE THIS COURSE? Most students will be able to finish the course in 3-4 Weeks.
