What is your teaching philosophy?
The key to succeeding in a subject is to be intrinsically motivated to learn. I try to find real world applications for the subjects I teach to give students an insight past the concept at hand and into its true value.
What might you do in a typical first session with a student?
Start with a lighthearted and short conversation, followed by asking the students what his/her strengths and weaknesses are in the subject. It is always a good idea to take a look at a student's previous work to see where they excel and where they struggle.
