What is your teaching philosophy?
Enjoy the learning process. If there is a way to laugh and have fun while teaching and learning, then we are doing something right.
What might you do in a typical first session with a student?
It's important to know why we are doing this in the first place. Whether it's about getting a better grade or just wanting to learn more about the material, we can't accomplish our goal if we don't know what that goal is.
How can you help a student become an independent learner?
Having worked as a coach and counselor, I have always looked to work my way out of a job. I know I've been successful when the student has a set of tools that they are prepared to use and know when to use them.
How would you help a student stay motivated?
It's important to get to know the student and understand what their motivations are. I like to have small attainable goals that move us toward the larger reward.
