What is your teaching philosophy?
I like to get a feel of my student's strengths and weaknesses first on the subject. Then I try to gauge their interests, so that the information I'm trying to teach is easy for them to relate to.
What might you do in a typical first session with a student?
Answer any questions they have on the subject and my background first. I then ask them questions on the topic to see their relative understanding on the subject. Also, I try to set up a tutoring schedule with them.
How can you help a student become an independent learner?
I encourage them to utilize a variety of videos or reading materials on the subject. I also ask my students to look at material before meeting with them first, so that when we first meet it is not their first time encountering the subject material. I also try to make the information interesting to them, so they don't lose interest on the subject.
How would you help a student stay motivated?
I try to make the topic interesting to them by relating the material to their interests and hobbies.
If a student has difficulty learning a skill or concept, what would you do?
I explain the information to them and gradually work with them to see what aspects of the topic they are struggling with. I also try to give them practice problems and continuously ask them questions on the topic until they can be more comfortable with the concept.
