What might you do in a typical first session with a student?
I would get to know their interests and what motivates them. After that, we would do some assessments to figure out what direction is best to go.
How can you help a student become an independent learner?
I let them do the work by asking lots of questions and working through problems with them. I will provide different options as they work so they know there are different strategies from which to pick.
How would you help a student stay motivated?
It depends on the student. Sometimes wiggle breaks are part of working together, or sticker charts toward a larger prize. Working on skills with them through the lens of interests is also important.
