...learning style includes breaking down more complex problems with smaller examples. This is to make sure that students fully understand the context of what's going on. Verifying the fundamentals of a problem are fully understood is key to having a complete understanding of current school work. I have history teach K-11 working at Mathnasium as...

...most basic principles and building from there. If the problem requires knowing high level topics, I take the problem apart and ensure each subset is understood. Once the student can teach the subject or formulate their own problems and solutions, this is an indication that they have a good understanding of the topic.

...Consequently, my personal approach to teaching involves delving into the deep foundational ideas of basic topics. By building a strong base, students will be able to solve more difficult problems critically and effectively even if they run into a problem that they have not encountered before. I hope to instill curiosity and a basic intuition...
