How do you build a student's confidence in a subject?
I point out when I see that they have made improvements from our last session. I also congratulate them when they do well on work that they do with me or in their actual classes.
What types of materials do you typically use during a tutoring session?
I like to use lots of examples, and I have students explain the material in their own words so that I can confirm that they truly understand. I also like to use visuals like pictures, graphs, and/or videos to reinforce concepts.
