What strategies have you found to be most successful when you start to work with a student?
I believe in building a good rapport with my students and find it very important for creating humorous examples. Students will need to put in work outside of the sessions to keep up progress like any other skills.
What techniques would you use to be sure that a student understands the material?
I like to vary assessment types with students, frequently "explain it back to me." Students should be able to do previous lessons in impromptu questions during unrelated work.
