What is your teaching philosophy?
I like to teach in a visual way. Usually using step by step diagrams.
What might you do in a typical first session with a student?
Go over any practice problems or work that a student might be having trouble with.
How can you help a student become an independent learner?
After showing them how to do a problem, I usually have them do a few examples on their own so they can see how the solution works.
How would you help a student stay motivated?
If we were having too much difficulty with a problem, I would go back to either an easier problem or an easier component of a problem.
If a student has difficulty learning a skill or concept, what would you do?
Patience is key. I would keep working on the first step before we move on to a more complicated portion of the problem. I can always break a concept down into smaller and simpler components.
How do you help students who are struggling with reading comprehension?
Reading slowly and understanding the entire sentence or phrase is key. I would also have the student take notes and make outlines of what they are reading.
What strategies have you found to be most successful when you start to work with a student?
I usually like to draw out diagrams of simple examples and work our way up to more complicated ones.
