The BCP will be very helpful especially for slow learners, but also for the fast learners who will develop more language by writing and answering in full sentences.

It made me rethink how I teach and how I can change the language I use.

Teacher Feedback

I understand how I can assist my learners who need intervention. The BCP will boost the self-esteem and knowledge of weak learners. It definitely helps me to guide my learners, using the correct language applicable to the situation.
