Why Small Group Learning is at the HEART of Sit Beside ✨

At Sit Beside, small group learning isn’t just part of our approach—it’s at the heart of everything we do. These intimate, collaborative spaces are where learners thrive, feel seen, and grow in confidence. ✨

Every learner approaches challenges in their own way, and in a small group setting, those differences aren’t just acknowledged—they’re celebrated. Together, students explore new strategies, share ideas, and support one another, turning learning into a meaningful, long-lasting journey.

The Power of Small Groups

Research shows that small-group learning fosters deeper understanding, greater knowledge retention, and higher participation levels. 🧠 At Sit Beside, we see these benefits come to life every day.

In math, for example, small groups allow learners to explore multiple problem-solving strategies, improving both procedural fluency and conceptual understanding. By working closely with peers, students gain the confidence to share their thinking, make mistakes, and grow through the experience.

Here’s why small groups are central to Sit Beside:

  • 💡 Personalized Attention: Each learner receives the individual support they need, tailored to their specific journey. This personalized feedback encourages risk-taking and new ways of thinking.

  • 🌟 Peer Learning: Something special happens when learners collaborate. Recently, a math group watched one student adopt a more efficient problem-solving strategy from a peer. Not only did they grow as a problem-solver, but their peer gained confidence in their ability to help others.

  • ✍ Confidence Building: Writing can feel daunting, but our small group Writer’s Workshop removes the pressure to be perfect. Learners focus on finding their voice and building their confidence, making writing a joyful and empowering experience.
