In class
The person next to you is stuck on the same maths question you just finished. They have not asked.
What could you do first?
Three things you could say. None of them is the one right answer; each note says why it fits the moment, or why it may not.
Ask: "Want me to show you how I did it, or do you want to keep trying?"
A strong fit
Offers help and the choice to decline.
Say: "I got that one, ask me if you want."
Also works here
An open offer they can take up. Fine.
Write the answer on their page.
Worth a second look
Doing it for them takes their work away, and teachers notice.
What people here usually expect
- Offering help in class is normal. Asking first is the difference between helping and taking over.
- Some people would rather struggle a bit longer. That is allowed.
- "Ask me if you want" is a common way to offer and step back.
Your words
Write your own way of offering to show someone your working, with an easy no.
In the app you write one line here and it lands in your lines. Nothing is graded.
The move this moment practises: Ask before helping.
