What might you do in a typical first session with a student?
In my first session I will get to know the student better and understand how or why there are struggling in a particular subject. I will ask them what they like least and best about the subject, and ask them how they think they learn best, whether it be by hands on activities, practice questions or problems, or using drawings or acting out to describe a particular area of a subject.
How do you build a student's confidence in a subject?
I would start by going to back to the basics of the subject and reviewing the concept asking them questions on what material they have learned in the past. We will work our way up to the problem's they are having so that they have the confidence to tackle the more difficult questions.
