Introduction

Cuemath does not maintain a rating system for the teachers. All our teachers are carefully selected, rigorously trained, and constantly upskilled. While there could be a slight variance in the way each Cuemath learning centre is managed, the program delivery and teaching methods are uniform across the centers. We maintain internal controls to ensure this is true all the time.

• All the teachers are trained and certified by Cuemath before they start their centres.
• The Cuemath experience will be standard across the centres, as we maintain internal controls to ensure this.
• The parents always have the option to interact with multiple teachers in their locality and choose the centre that they are the most comfortable with.

Teacher selection and training process

Cuemath teachers go through a stringent selection and training process to ensure that they deliver the Cuemath program as designed:

1. A preliminary screening of educational qualifications and previous work experience.
2. An on-call screening to verify the details provided and discuss Cuemath program requirements.
3. Math training and assessment to check the math aptitude.
4. Program training and assessment to ensure they understood the usage and delivery.
5. Personal round of interview and final assessment to certify.

All of the steps mentioned above are elimination rounds and only 4% of all the applicants usually make it to the certification and start their learning centres. 

Cuemath Learning Experience 

The Cuemath learning experience includes multiple aspects like learning tools, class schedules, and logistical aspects. To ensure a conducive learning environment and practices, Cuemath checks the following aspects for each learning centre when they begin and audits the same aspects from time to time:

• A Cuemath class is delivered for one hour of which 40 minutes is spent on workbooks, 10 minutes on tab-based activities, and 10 minutes on puzzle card discussions.
• There is sufficient space to manage a class of 6 students in a space that is conducive for learning.
• Availability of basic amenities like stationery, access to drinking water and restrooms, etc.

In addition to these there are a few controls in place which monitor the program delivery at the student level:

• Monthly progress reports are generated and sent to the teachers, which will be shared with the parents by the teacher. The same reports are discussed in the mandatory PTMs that the teachers conduct.
• The weekly activity of the students is reviewed, and student and teacher level insights are shared with the teacher for required measures to improve learning outcomes.
• Parents can review the workbooks once they are completed and sent home. The parent facing app will contain daily progress.

While we ensure the core delivery of the program and the learning experience are standard across the learning centres there will be a slight variance from one centre to the other due to the people factors like:

• Our teachers come from varied backgrounds and educational qualifications.
• The teachers have the freedom to come up with creative methods to encourage students for better engagement and their ideas could be unique to their centre

Here’s how you can exercise your options as a parent:

Cuemath has multiple learning centres in each locality, to ensure that they are easily accessible for the students. You can check multiple centres and pick the one that is most convenient for you.

1. Find the nearest teachers on the Cuemath website.
2. Shortlist 2 to 3 teachers who are close to your residence.
3. Meet the teachers for a Cuemath experience session.
4. Enroll your child in the centre that you felt comfortable with.
