Catechetically

/ˌkætɪˈkɛtɪkəli/ adverb

Definition

In a catechetical manner; by means of catechesis or systematic religious instruction through questions and answers.

Etymology

From 'catechetical' + '-ly' (adverbial suffix). This forms the adverbial version of the Greek-derived adjective, indicating how something is done in a methodical, question-based teaching style.

Kelly Says

Using words this way—catechetically, pedagogically, didactically—shows how English took Greek teaching methods and turned them into fancy adverbs to describe how any kind of knowledge transfer happens.
