Homeschooling aid

We understand the growing concern many parents have about the effects of large classrooms and institutionalized education. For this reason we started to offer homeschooling aid as our AM session. An indepth meeting with the student and parent(s) helps us understand what is required for the students progress. We then design a customised plan which will take our student through their academic journey. We often incorporate different homeschooling methods with local systems preferred by the parents (e.g. British, American, or Pakistani). The curriculum is completely student-centered with regular parent-tutor meetings where we discuss their progress and our mutual concerns.

After-school tutoring

For our PM session, we provide post-school care. This can include help with homework, clearing concepts taught at school, further practise, and remediation. Apart from this, we try to assess students to understand their academic strengths and obstacles, and find the best possible solution to help make them independent and mature learners.

Workshops

We have conducted many different workshops for children where we try to cover a large variety of topics such as languages (with a particular interest in the Urdu language), art, mental well-being, language learning skills, along with other academic and life skills. These Workshops are reoccurring, which means that if you have missed one in the past, there is a high chance it will be happening again soon, so do keep your eye out!

Kanzah and Varisha started Word Academics in 2018 when they realized the dire need for modern educational facilities away from the mainstream systems in place. They wanted to use their combined teaching experience of 17 years and create a safe space for children to get in touch with their inner learners. The two of them, along with their team of carefully chosen tutors constantly research and strengthen their teaching techniques to accomodate students no matter where they stand.

She received First Aid Training and Specialist Service Training to better support the children in care.
