Testimonial on The Teach Back Method
"The Teach Back as a Learning Tool"
The Teach Back is an effective tool for review and test prep as it engages students to be responsible for their own learning. Working in groups, students solve problems, write solutions and present their findings. By increasing participation and fostering a culture of teamwork, learners improve their skills and test scores while building confidence and camaraderie.
"The Teach Back is very good because the students may connect better with one another than the teacher would."
Bronx High School of Science, Junior |
