What is your teaching philosophy?
I strive to see things from my students' perspectives when I teach. I will probe with questions to understand what they actually know rather than what they tell me they know, and I'll build on their understanding from there.
What might you do in a typical first session with a student?
I would start by asking a series of probing questions to gauge their understanding of the subject matter. Having established the student's knowledge of the topic, I would engage in an interactive lecture/discussion of the introductory material.
