Home Learning Outcomes

Any rigorous study requires a strong sense of motivation.

J. Turner and S. G. Paris published their 1915 list of the six Cs of motivation in 1915:
The six Cs list comprises:

Choice; Challenge; Control; Co-operation; Construction of meaning; and Consequence.

CHOICE allows selection of the nature of an task, depending on personal interest and availability. Elcox provides a variety of alternatives, including online private tutoring and an AI online practice platform.

Private tuition allows choice of your course content so that it will relate to your professional, academic, or social interests. Primary advantages of this are worthwhile benefits, compelling purpose, and high motivation.

Similar to this flexibility, our AI English private practice platform provides a diverse choice of study themes, including food, health and fitness, sporting events, politics, science, friendship, and travel.

Thus, units provide practise in dealing with everyday scenarios such as ordering a dish at a restaurant or making an appointment to see a doctor, taking a train, or attending a conference, among other things.

The idea is to involve you in direct usage of English at an advanced level, which is the most natural and successful method of studying the language and acquiring fluency.

Elcox private tutors use Oxford-style proven teaching to ensure that the content of your safe home study materials is up to date.

CHALLENGE occurs in three ways:

Secure home study challenges reading, writing, listening, analysis, reasoning, writing, and Oxford English grammar;

Challenge is constantly available via our online AI practice platform, which affords on-demand automatic writing evaluation (AWE) and automatic speech recognition (ASR).

It provides graded tests of grammar, reading and listening.

A placement test, powered by the AI practice platform, adds yet another layer of challenge;

Online private tutorials allow you to defend real-time constructive challenges put by your tutor.

For home study challenge, we offer a diverse selection of reading materials and AV lectures that will appeal to you because of your principal interests.

Topics are continuously accessible and updated, and may be accessed as often as necessary, making tasks repeatable and perfectible.

The AI English private practice platform, as well as your tutorial essays, are designed to challenge and to motivate you.

CONTROL is achieved through self-reliant thinking, taking initiative, and self-discipline.

You have complete control over the timing, location, support tools, and frequency of your General English secure home study sessions and online private tuition.

To succeed with challenges, such as essays and platform tests, you will need to control critical thinking skills as well as judgement and originality, and eschew any temptation to engage mindless rote study.

CO-OPERATION with your online teacher entails preparatory research, reading, listening, and analysis for essay-writing, with frequent reference to the Elcox AI practice platform to check your work.

This will ensure you understand your subject of home study and, thereby, make sure you are ready to benefit from your valuable online private tuition sessions.

Co-operation between students enrolled on similar home study will serve to persuade them to persevere.

This is important because it helps to alleviate any feelings of isolation that might afflict a learner during their private course of home-learning.

Co-operation is considerably more constructive than competition, especially when the rivalry is focused on recreating the wheel, as is the case with many industries and services.
Elcox online teachers encourage and enable interactive home study co-operation to bring about the synergised achievements and mutual benefits which shared use of the AI practice platform can facilitate.

The Elcox online AI English private practice platform features a community site with a discussion forum accessible to all users.

Your online teacher can build a forum in which you may exchange views with other learners.

This is particularly useful when a topic of General English home study is of common interest to everyone.

Co-operation is viewed positively and is encouraged as a technique of increasing motivation.

CONSTRUCTING MEANING
Elcox secure home learning and online private tuition encourages lateral thinking and leads to the discovery of innovative meaning to seemingly intractable issues.

When a student recognises the importance of learning and can apply it to their daily lives, it is referred to as intellectual meaning and purpose.

The programme of study and the manner in which it is presented have an impact on how a learner decides whether it is worthwhile:

For example, a tutor might urge a student to read and comprehend an article on exercise and health.

This reading exercise could be assigned in a variety of ways in order to increase its relevance:

“Please read the material carefully and respond to the questions that follow.

“Then submit your answers.”

This request is quite wooden and unlikely to elicit an enthusiastic response from the student.

By contrast, when the tutor says.

“Consider the physical activity you will engage in next week.

“Make a recording of it and share it with a friend.

“Read this handout’s questions attentively and make notes of any things you think might be relevant to you and your friend.

“Chat about your thoughts with your friend and summarise your joint ideas in a short report.”

This request is much more likely to be perceived as relevant and useful to the student than the first example.

Elcox also provides open-ended writing and oral communication tasks on the practice platform.

These will be personally relevant, and handouts will encourage you to participate in acquiring and using Oxford English as a second language.
Inherently, studying anything relevant to one’s interests and needs is both stimulating and meaningful learning, as demonstrated time and time again.

Gaining a lifelong understanding of the English language through private tutoring in Oxford English moves more quickly towards the end of a course and instils a strong sense of accomplishment as well as meaning and motivation.

CONSEQUENCE
Private students gain from individualised tasks as well as from the exchange of learning methodologies and ideas, and the outcomes amount to the consequence of their efforts.

The most effective method to get to this point is to work under a tutor who customises home study and AI platform practise to meet your specific needs.

When you receive favourable outcomes from both home study and use of the AI English private practice platform, this is referred to as the degree to which your efforts have favourable consequences.

Exceptional performance in a public exam, consistent high grades from home study activities, formative tests, and summative assessments at the conclusion of a study unit are examples of positive consequences.

Important beneficial consequences will be felt in everyday life, such as gaining a competitive advantage in the workplace or engaging in satisfying social interactions as your fluency in Oxford English grows.

In any scenario, job satisfaction or a sense of purpose serves as a catalyst for increasing the opportunities to interact and work as a team, in order to generate meaning and beneficial consequences to your English studies.
