Teaching Methods

At SERI International School, we embrace innovative and student-centered teaching methods that foster deep learning, creativity, and critical thinking. Our approach integrates modern technology, hands-on experiences, and interactive learning to make education engaging and effective.

We use a blend of traditional and contemporary methodologies, including experiential learning, project-based activities, and digital tools, to cater to different learning styles. Our teachers emphasize conceptual understanding over rote memorization, ensuring students develop problem-solving skills and analytical thinking.

Collaborative learning, discussions, and real-world applications are key aspects of our teaching, helping students become independent learners and confident individuals prepared for the challenges of the future.

Daycare Program

Play-Based and Sensory Learning

Engages children in interactive games, sensory play, and hands-on activities like puzzles, building blocks, and art to develop cognitive, motor, and problem-solving skills.

Storytelling, Music, and Movement
Enhances language, creativity, and coordination through nursery rhymes, storytelling, action songs, and dance, making learning fun and engaging.
Structured Routine and Life Skills
Establishes a consistent schedule for play, learning, meals, and rest while teaching basic self-care, teamwork, and social skills.
Outdoor and Social Exploration

Pre-Primary (Nursery, LKG, UKG)

Play-Based Learning

Encourages curiosity, creativity, and engagement through storytelling, music, games, and role-play. This method helps children develop cognitive, motor, and social skills in a stress-free environment, making learning an enjoyable and natural process while fostering early problem-solving abilities.

Montessori Approach

Focuses on hands-on, self-directed activities that promote independence, fine motor skills, and cognitive development. Learning materials are designed to encourage children to explore and discover, allowing them to develop problem-solving abilities and self-discipline while learning at their own pace.

Sensory Learning

Utilizes visual, auditory, and tactile experiences to enhance understanding and memory retention. By engaging multiple senses, children develop cognitive abilities, fine motor skills, and better comprehension, making abstract concepts more tangible and easier to grasp.

Theme-Based Learning

Introduces subjects through interconnected themes that link various concepts naturally. This method helps children understand how different subjects relate to real-life situations, making learning meaningful and helping them retain information more effectively.

Primary (Grades 1-5)

Experiential Learning

Encourages students to learn by doing, using real-world experiences, experiments, and interactive activities. This hands-on approach enhances understanding, strengthens retention, and helps children apply theoretical concepts to everyday life, making learning more engaging and practical.

Inquiry-Based Learning

Fosters curiosity and independent thinking by encouraging students to ask questions, explore topics, and seek answers. This method helps develop critical thinking, creativity, and research skills, making students active participants in their learning journey rather than passive recipients of information.

Phonics-Based Reading

Strengthens language and literacy skills by teaching students to decode words using sound patterns. This approach enhances pronunciation, fluency, comprehension, and vocabulary, laying a strong foundation for advanced reading and communication skills.

Collaborative Learning

Engages students in group activities, discussions, and teamwork to enhance communication, problem-solving, and interpersonal skills. This method encourages peer-to-peer learning, boosts confidence, and fosters a sense of community and cooperation among students.

Middle School (Grades 6-8)

Project-Based Learning (PBL)

Encourages students to engage in real-world projects that require research, critical thinking, and creativity. By solving problems and presenting solutions, students develop independent learning skills, teamwork abilities, and a deeper understanding of subjects.

Flipped Classroom

Provides students with pre-class learning materials, such as videos and readings, allowing classroom time for discussions, problem-solving, and deeper exploration. This method fosters independent learning and helps students develop critical thinking and analytical skills.

Technology-Integrated Learning

Utilizes smart classrooms, digital tools, and e-learning platforms to make education interactive and engaging. By integrating technology, students gain digital literacy, develop research skills, and experience an immersive learning environment that enhances understanding.

Skill-Based Learning

Focuses on developing essential life skills such as leadership, adaptability, collaboration, and problem-solving. This approach prepares students to navigate real-world challenges effectively and equips them with the competencies required for future academic and career success.

High School (Grades 9-12)

Conceptual Learning

Prioritizes deep understanding of concepts over rote memorization. Students engage in discussions, case studies, and critical analysis, allowing them to grasp complex topics, apply knowledge effectively, and develop strong analytical thinking and reasoning abilities.

STEM & Robotics

Integrates Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM) with robotics and coding, encouraging hands-on learning, innovation, and problem-solving. This approach helps students develop technical skills, logical reasoning, and a passion for scientific exploration.

Case Study & Research-Based Learning

Encourages students to analyze real-world scenarios, conduct research, and develop solutions. This method fosters independent thinking, improves decision-making skills, and enhances the ability to apply theoretical knowledge to practical challenges.

Exam-Oriented Strategies

Uses structured revision plans, practice tests, and analytical techniques to prepare students for board and competitive exams. This approach helps students manage time effectively, reduce stress, and improve academic performance with a focus on conceptual clarity and problem-solving techniques.

Career & Leadership Development

Offers career counseling, college guidance, and leadership programs to help students make informed decisions about their future. By developing confidence, communication skills, and professional competencies, students are better equipped to transition into higher education and successful careers.
