PRIMARY TUTORING

We provide comprehensive support for primary learners across local and international curricula, including the following.

Primary Learners Curricula

✅ CBC (Competency-Based Curriculum – Kenya)

The Competency-Based Curriculum (CBC) focuses on preparing learners with 21st-century skills by emphasizing practical competencies over rote memorization. At Alexal:

We guide learners in critical thinking, problem-solving, collaboration, and communication.
Our tutors deliver lessons in line with Kenya’s Ministry of Education requirements, ensuring compliance with assessment standards.
Learners are supported in environmental activities, social studies, religious education, and life skills that shape holistic development.
We use interactive, project-based approaches such as experiments, role-play, and storytelling to make learning practical and enjoyable.
Parents receive regular progress feedback, ensuring they remain part of the child’s learning journey.

✅IB

The International Baccalaureate (IB) empowers learners to become inquirers, thinkers, and responsible global citizens through a holistic, inquiry-driven approach. At Alexal:

We nurture curiosity, creativity, and independence, enabling students to ask meaningful questions and find real-world solutions.

Our tutors align with IB standards, guiding learners through the Primary Years Programme (PYP), Middle Years Programme (MYP), and Diploma Programme (DP).

Learners are exposed to interdisciplinary studies, global issues, community service, and cultural awareness, fostering both academic and personal growth.

We emphasize active learning through research projects, debates, experiments, and reflective journals that bring concepts to life.

Parents are engaged through progress reports, portfolio reviews, and collaborative goal-setting, ensuring shared responsibility in the learner’s journey.

Initial academic assessments identify strengths, weaknesses, and learning styles.
Tutors customize lesson delivery to match the learner’s pace while maintaining curriculum standards.
Regular progress tracking ensures that learning outcomes are achieved step by step.
Extra support is provided for slow learners, while gifted students receive advanced enrichment opportunities.
Parents receive consistent feedback and progress reports, encouraging collaboration between home and school.
Our approach guarantees learners build solid literacy, numeracy, critical thinking, and creativity—the foundation for lifelong academic and personal success.

✅ 8-4-4 Primary

Although Kenya is transitioning to CBC, many learners are still in the 8-4-4 system. Our tutoring support helps them succeed by:

Strengthening understanding in English, Kiswahili, Mathematics, Science, and Social Studies.
Providing exam-focused strategies that prepare learners for national assessments (KCPE).
Offering structured revision, practice tests, and feedback to build exam confidence.
Equipping learners with discipline and study techniques necessary for smooth transition into secondary school.
Identifying areas of weakness early and tailoring lessons to fill gaps.
