What is your teaching philosophy?
My teaching philosophy is to break down concepts and make them as simple and easy to understand as possible. There is no need to make a subject harder than it has to be.
What might you do in a typical first session with a student?
In a first session with a student, I like to get to know them a little bit. I learn about the students interests, as well as what they're struggling with and what kind of learning style they have.
How can you help a student become an independent learner?
Part of understanding a subject is finding the answers to problems themselves. I try and give people the tools to not only be able to find the answer to problems, but the desire to find it themselves as well.
