What might you do in a typical first session with a student?
In a typical first session, we would love to get to know each other and get comfortable with speaking to each other. After, I would want to know their level of understanding in whatever subject help is needed. I'd start with some simple exercises and go from there.
What techniques would you use to be sure that a student understands the material?
At the end of every session I will give a mini verbal quiz on what was covered that day.
How do you build a student's confidence in a subject?
I help them realized how much knowledge they have by allowing them to tutor me. This is one method where I have the student recite the information back to me in a non-intimidating format.
