What is your teaching philosophy?
The short answer is- to be interactive. I believe student engagement is extremely important. For this reason, I create interactive, interesting lessons that are focused on student-led discussions, conversations, and critical thinking.
What might you do in a typical first session with a student?
Get to know a student by conducting short activities to both assess their skills as well as see what approach will work best in the future.
How can you help a student become an independent learner?
Teach him/her valuable skills that go beyond the subject content.
