What is your teaching philosophy?
It's not just the student that needs patience and dedication--a tutor or teacher needs it just as much. If we can't figure out something one way, then we'll try looking at other ways.
What might you do in a typical first session with a student?
In a first session, I would ask you what your goals are, and what background you have with the material in question. I would also begin to figure out your learning style--whether you prefer a "hands-on" approach, or a more detailed explanation.
