What should I practice between Arabic sessions?
Use your homework, recent corrections and lesson material to give each practice session a purpose.
Read articleAfter a missed session, begin by finding out what was covered and what you need for the next lesson. You do not need to guess your way through a pile of unfinished work.
Tell Hiwar as early as possible
If you cannot attend, tell your teacher and Hiwar as early as possible, within the notice period in your enrollment terms. Emergencies are reviewed individually. A missed session does not automatically include replacement teaching, and recordings are not guaranteed.
If you have already missed the session, contact your Student Support Assistant now.
Ask what to do first
Get the lesson topic, the required work and the one or two points you need before the next session. Use available materials and the catch-up plan agreed with Hiwar.
Tell your teacher what you can already do and where you are stuck. That is more useful than trying to complete everything without understanding it.
Keep the next session in view
Prepare the essential work for the next lesson, then schedule the remaining catch-up tasks. Bring specific questions rather than waiting until you feel completely ready.
Use the practice planner to give each task a place in your week.
If the interruption is longer, arrange a pause
For a longer interruption, contact your Student Support Assistant. Hiwar reviews your enrollment terms and confirms any agreed change and return arrangement in writing.
Your teacher, cohort or timetable may change on return. Before you return, ask your Student Support Assistant what you should review.
