I believe that a student learns best by practicing what they've learned in theory.

I find out where and what they are having trouble learning in their studies to focus my plan of action.

I can empower them to think for themselves by not giving them the answer unless absolutely necessary.

I like to make learning fun and enjoyable. It's best to approach the material so that a student may relate and connect to the subject.

I would use the senses to aid understanding, such as seeing, hearing, speaking and looking at the "big picture".

I help them understand using their senses so that what they are reading "comes alive".

To find out how the student relates to the world and use that technique. Would they rather see it, hear it or use their hands to explore the world?

Use real-life scenarios as examples so that a student can connect to the subject.

Use games, quizzes and tests to assist a student's understanding and comprehension. How would you explain (teach) this to someone else?

I build on past achievements for future challenges. Once a student masters one skill or ability, they will often believe that learning new ideas and concepts is fun and exciting, thereby building confidence.

I find out where and why they are struggling in their studies. Once you break down a total into its parts, the learning process becomes easier and faster.

I find out how they learn in life. How do they process information? Do they learn best by first reading about the subject or testing out the idea with a hands-on method?
