No need for definite article in both places?

Hi. Please help. I don't think we need to put the definite article "the" in the both places indicated. For the made-up sentence below, let's say there is a remedial class at the school. Do we need to put definite articles there?

He is to meet with (the?) remedial students and give a mini-lesson teaching (the?) Unit 1 vocabulary.

Thank you very much. Please help me with this, too. Let me change the sentence like I've done below. Is the definite article "the" needed in the place indicated? I think the phrase "remedial class students" sounds better than "remedial students," which was in the original sentence. Thank you in advance for your help.

He met with remedial class students and taught them Unit 1 vocabulary. ('the' is not needed. 'them' has been added in its place..)
