reteaching

Explaining it over

Reteaching is the act of teaching something again, typically because students didn't grasp the material the first time.

Teachers engage in reteaching when assessments reveal gaps in understanding, often approaching the concept from a different angle or with new methods.

After the quiz results came back, the teacher spent a day reteaching fractions using visual aids.

The term appears frequently in educational contexts where mastery learning is emphasized.
