What is your teaching philosophy?
I believe that forming a relationship and developing rapport with a student is essential to tutoring success. In addition, I feel that students need to be invested in their own educational goals. I believe that all students are motivated to learn, but many are hindered from striving to their full potential by lack of encouragement and fear of failure. Instilling confidence in students is critical to their success.
