General teaching tips:

Students with the Green Profile generally love participation in class so encourage them to teach you how to do the questions once they are more confident with the concept- Ensure their understanding by teaching slowly and methodically, breaking everything down into the smallest steps- Before moving onto the next step, ensure their understanding by giving them variations of the same questions to continuously test their understanding
