TUITION-FREE STRATEGY
In a nutshell, at PAES the student will simply not require any external assistance privately or at a center. Period.
Students have diverse learning styles and PAES provides them with a unique learning program which strengthens all the links between arriving at college and later engaging in self-study at home.
A Level is more than twice as tough as O Level, therefore a systematic self-study plan at home is crucial in completing A Level successfully e.g. four hours of focused self-study. PAES College provides a 360° counseling service to students with the support of parents, and that is able to ensure that students remain resilient and determined in overcoming academic obstacles.
1. Structured classroom lectures by subject teachers.
2. Reinforcement and practice classes by specially appointed Peer Tutors.
The mission of PAES is to let no student be left behind academically and for this very purpose students are regularly counseled and parents engaged for the larger betterment of students.
EXAMINATION SYSTEM
The students of A Level and due to their age group, can be quite mercurial. At PAES, we know for a fact that these millennia’s are destined to achieve remarkable success in life if they are steered in the right direction.
This basic idea has been behind all the efforts at PAES College – to ensure that students genuinely enjoy all aspects of college life – be it the classroom lecture or the various interactions they experience daily.
Every teacher and every member of staff goes the extra mile to create an academic ambiance which reflects the inspirations and aspirations of this generation and within the larger picture at PAES is the examination system entailing monthly subject tests and full-fledged mid-term and mock examinations on the exact pattern of CAIE.
HOMEWORK AND PAST PAPERS
For each subject a student will periodically receive homework which is assigned with the objective of preparing students for the monthly test and subsequently the college examinations.
One key performance indicator of a student’s success level is the solution of past papers both in college and at home. In college, mostly topical past papers are focused on i.e. upon completion of a topic, a relevant question from any one specific year of exams will be assigned to students. However, at home it is of absolute significance that students solve up to 15 years of past papers, and later get them checked by their teacher or associate teacher (self-checking will not be accurate).
STUDY KITS
The college provides academic resources to students such as subject notes, study guides and other comprehensive study material and that serve as a power pack for the gradual preparation for tests and examinations. The study kit as a whole is referred by the teachers and developed for both years of A Level.
WORKSHOPS
As the curriculum finals approach, in the month of April and later in May, exclusive revision workshops are organized for all subjects in order to refresh the entire syllabi and complete the overall practice process. Additionally, these workshops prove to be beneficial to receive the final guidance and tips from the teachers.
APTITUDE TEST PREPARATION
PAES believes in providing a turn-key solution to students so that the transition from college to university is as smooth as possible.
On campus, aptitude test preparation classes are conducted for SAT, MCAT and ECAT by qualified trainers.
