What is your teaching philosophy?
My teaching philosophy is patience and detail. I think it is important to start from the beginning and figure out exactly where a student begins to have trouble and why. Once the root of that problem is solved, it is easier to continue, and easier to get around future problems as they arise.
What might you do in a typical first session with a student?
I would do a basic assessment in the areas that the student needs help with, and continue the assessment with increasing difficulty to figure out exactly where and when a student begins to have issues.
How can you help a student become an independent learner?
By helping to identify where and what kind of problems arise in while a student is studying or learning, I can help a student create their own plan or tactics to solve these problems as they experience them. This way students will be able to help themselves to study when they encounter road bumps.
