Tutoring Subjects
What is your teaching philosophy?
I aim to have the students figure out problems on their own, with lots of discussion. Talking through problems is the best way to learn and understand subject matter on a deeper level. As a language tutor, I aim to have my students speak in Spanish as much as possible, and I encourage them to express their ideas. Correct grammar and vocabulary use come at a much higher rate once the student establishes even the smallest amount of confidence in speaking the words they already know.
