What is your teaching philosophy?
I believe that understanding the material through a visual representation, usually something meaningful, is key to basic understanding and grasping the concept. Memorizing the concepts is not a good approach especially in organic chemistry, and Math.
What might you do in a typical first session with a student?
Introduce myself, and ask them to draw the problem out. After that I will proceed to answer the question and explain the thought process behind it.
How can you help a student become an independent learner?
I can help a student understand the basics behind different types of problems, which can help them become an independent learner.
If a student has difficulty learning a skill or concept, what would you do?
I will try to relate it to simpler concepts that will help with more complicated concepts .
