What is your teaching philosophy?

What might you do in a typical first session with a student?

If it is a math course, I will ask if the students have any problems that I can help. If it is a Chinese course, I will start with basic words and sentences.

Encouragement is always the best way. Sometimes students are confused with what they are dealing with and what they have learned. Encouraging them to find the connection and difference between them is a good way to guide them to the solution.

I will check their homework and find what they usually are struggling with.
