Our Teaching Style
At AJW College , we have a completely new approach to academic education, as compared to other institutions. Instead of studying 4-5 different subjects in one day and returning home with a jumble of information, we focus on learning one subject per day.
During a 4½ hours of classroom activities, the students learn the theoretical and practical aspects of the topic they are studying through an experienced teacher and gain a deeper understanding of the subject matter through experiments, questions, discussions, debate and pop quizzes, all in the same day. This is followed by a 1 ½ hour of catch-up class where they can question anything that they don’t understand through a younger, dynamic teacher who they can better relate to.
The academic activities of the day are regularly broken up with frequent breaks and an assortment of activities which prevent monotony.
