from our Parents & Students

How does the Curio Programme Work?

A Curio subscription comes with a full package of tools designed to help you learn everything you need and beyond in order to excel in a subject, not just once a week, but with full access throughout the week, anytime you need a coach.

During an Online Video Lesson:

In-depth analysis of a topic by a Curio coach
Addressing of various question types commonly seen in tests & exams
Practice, practice, practice

During the Week:

By the end of a session, students will have the answers to the questions posed during the online lesson, as well as a selection of questions to continue practising throughout the week. Students can hand in their answers at any time via their Google classrooms. Additional practices will be graded and returned before the following week’s lesson.

Key Features of the Curio Programme

Beautifully Designed Lessons

Curio’s lessons are designed with the future in mind and flexibility at its core. We conduct all our classes online, with unlimited access to expertise, saving you time commuting and affording flexibility as to when learning takes place, as well as a degree of safety in these unprecedented times.

The Welcoming Curio Community

Students are encouraged to question as they explore, and the rich community which involves students, parents, their schools and Curio coaches will work in synergy to support the student’s cognitive and socio-emotional learning in a safe space. Ask all the questions you want.

Highly Trained Curio Coaches

Curio coaches are a close-knit group of experienced teachers. They are well trained and provided with regular feedback on their teaching and lessons. Curio coaches guide, facilitate and nurture a community of learning. All credentials will be made available to parents/guardians upon registration.

Flexibility in Learning Style

Students can choose to start out by attending classes, but once they feel confident about the subject, they are welcome to switch out to our Independent Plan, which ensures that they get practice and feedback while saving time from not having to attend weekly sessions for the subject.

Powered by the Sapience Method

‘The Well Educated Mind’ is the aspiration that prompted the development of the Sapience Method.

The Well Educated Mind is not one that merely retains plenty of learning. On the contrary, it is one that continually seeks wisdom, recognising that a real education consists of a sustained thirst for knowledge. Knowledge that seeks to both empower and inspire.

The Sapience Method utilises adaptive teaching to personalise your learning journey. This allows you to:

Learn based on your own learning speed
Understand exactly how your brain acquires knowledge
Melt stress away – learning should never involve struggle
Work on your strengths too, and not just your weaknesses
