SAT Subject Test in Mathematics Level 2
SAT Subject Tests Prep
What is your teaching philosophy?
I like to teach students how to break down all problems into simple manageable parts, especially in mathematics subjects. Instead of memorizing methods, I encourage students to understand the core concept of problems and possibly relate it to real life examples so they could get to their answer using logic.
What might you do in a typical first session with a student?
First, I introduce myself and ask the student to tell me about him/herself. Then, I ask the student what he/she would like to get started on or what he/she struggles with the most.
How can you help a student become an independent learner?
Students become independent learners when they have developed a genuine interest in a subject and an effective method of studying said subject. Therefore, as a tutor, I can help them by using cool, real life applications of the subject material to make it interesting and provide them a variety of study equipment and methods, including interactive websites, YouTube videos, textbooks, etc.
