What is your teaching philosophy?
Learning content or a new skill can take time but shouldn't be stressful. In my sessions, I use the student's interests, humor, and, occasionally, pushups and planks to facilitate the learning process.
How would you help a student stay motivated?
A healthy balance of carrots and sticks. Carrots: taking an interest in them, positive reinforcement, and Snapchat breaks. Sticks: my "disappointed in you" face, pushups, and planks.
What techniques would you use to be sure that a student understands the material?
Have them teach me the material slowly and clearly. Always works.
