1. How do we monitor the progress of the student?
Catalyze provides the students with regular assessments and assignments, which arepop quiz, topic wise assessments and term assessments to evaluate the progress of the student. We encourage the student to be on time in submission of these as they act as tools for improvisation. The tutors at Catalyze also work with the student to improvise on writing and presentation for the exam.
Students are expected to return the assessments and assignments on timefor them to benefit. Non-compliance to this may reflect in their progress.
Parental co-operation is requested to ensure on time submission.
2. What is the frequency of the Assignments?
Normally an assignment or homework is given once a week inclusive of the hourly charge. If the Parent or Student wishes an increase in the frequency of assignment, they will be charged extra.
The Assignments are uploaded through the website and the student can download the same, work on it and resubmit through the website. Doubt clarification is encouraged only during class time. We strongly discourage other forms of doubt clarification through email / Whatsapp etc.
3. What is the frequency of the Assessments?
Topic wise, Unit wise & Term assessments are provided. Past paper help is also provided. The frequency is decided by the tutor depending on the student uptake and the requirement. Intensive test series is also available and is customized according to the student’s board, Grade & subject. The intensive test series come at an additional cost.
4. Do you provide reports for the progress of the student?
Catalyze’s unique academic evaluation system evaluates the student on many attributes which are converted into a 5 point scale. The reports are shared with intensive plan students frequently and other students once a term. Our academic coordinator and CEO personally meet with the parents for PTMS.
