What is your teaching philosophy?
No one is perfect, but we can improve by turning our weaknesses into strengths.
How can you help a student become an independent learner?
I will help students learn and utilize concepts to take on any problem.
If a student has difficulty learning a skill or concept, what would you do?
I will always try different methods for each individual, because not everyone learns the same way.
How would you help a student get excited/engaged with a subject that they are struggling in?
I will tie it in to relevant experiences that we go through on a daily basis.
What techniques would you use to be sure that a student understands the material?
I can confirm if a student understands the material if he/she can explain the concept to me.
What might you do in a typical first session with a student?
Discuss goals and make a plan on how to achieve them.
