What is your teaching philosophy?
I believe that the best way to learn is through doing or through connecting a topic with relevant real world examples. I am a strongly visual learner and feel that if I can picture a certain problem, I can gain a much better understanding of what is going on.
What might you do in a typical first session with a student?
During a first session with a student I like to gauge their strengths and weaknesses, and assess their goals to determine the best approach for working with them.
