there are also softwares which help with the course. for eg. math softwares.

Answer 2

The best and most overlooked way to improve classroom education of any kind is to introduce the use of board games. I have taught for over ten years all over the world, and only when I use board games do students voluntarily insist on extending their classes for two, three, even four hours. Not only that, but they then show the most rapid improvement.
