Traditional Classroom

In a traditional math classroom, the teacher delivers a concept to the entire group, followed by practice, and then moves on to the next concept, regardless of individual mastery. This approach often forces teachers to cater to the average level of the class, leaving stronger students unchallenged and bored, while struggling students feel left behind and overwhelmed.

Flipped Classroom

In Mr. Liu's flipped classroom, teaching is delivered through his YouTube videos. Students watch the videos, take guided notes, solve practice problems, and complete an exit ticket. Those who pass move forward, while those who don't receive extra support and try again. This personalized approach allows individuals to work at their own pace and ensures mastery of fundamental concepts before tackling advanced ones. Every single person in the class can be working on a completely different lesson! The top students are not held back by anyone, and the struggling students are able to receive extra support!
