I enjoy blogging about motherhood, paper crafting, planning, and travel. I love current events, reading and trying new things.
What strategies have you found to be most successful when you start to work with a student?
When first working with a student, there are three things I do to be successful. First, I want to understand a student's goal. I want to know what he or she wants to achieve academically. If I'm working with a young student, I'll ask both the student and parents. Next, in our first session I will just get to know the student. I want to understand his or her strengths and challenges. I'll do this through interaction and observation. Last, I learn what motivates a student. This will help me work on concepts and rewards for our future sessions.
