What is your teaching philosophy?
Any student can grasp any subject matter. It is just a matter of finding out the concepts that the student needs to develop a further understanding of.
What might you do in a typical first session with a student?
I'd start with getting an idea of what the parent/guardian would like to see as a result from the sessions (if the parent/guardian initiated contact). I would then get an understanding of what the student would like to get out of the sessions, as well as learn about the student's interest outside of tutoring. Based on the responses from the parent/guardian and student, we will begin to develop a plan to get the best results from the sessions. The rest of the session would spent going through practices questions so that the student's needs can be better assessed.
