What is your teaching philosophy?
I try to teach through asking questions and helping students come to as much understanding as possible on their own.
What might you do in a typical first session with a student?
Try to ascertain their level of comfort with the subject and establish what they do and don't know to get a starting point.
How can you help a student become an independent learner?
By getting them familiar with seeing what questions to ask themselves about the problem or project they're working on.
How would you help a student stay motivated?
Try to help them achieve small wins throughout the process through coming to conclusions on their own as much as possible.
If a student has difficulty learning a skill or concept, what would you do?
Attempt to find a different way to present it.
