What is your teaching philosophy?
My teaching philosophy centers on communication. Students tend to seek tutors that can present the material in a way that offers a clearer understanding. I believe that pinpointing key deficiencies in a student’s knowledge, and then conveying the difficult material in an alternative way is critical for success. Each student has his or her own individual needs and strengths. Therefore, the strategy for teaching the science must be specific to the individual student.
