What is your teaching philosophy?
I break down the subjects as easily as possible for the student. I will not just give students the answer; I will work with so that they can answer the question, the end goal is that the student masters the material. If the student does not master the material then I have not done my job as a tutor.
What might you do in a typical first session with a student?
In a first session with a student I will first get a sense of what the student likes and dislikes, which helps me understand their learning style. I will then ask what they need from me in order for the student to master the material.
How can you help a student become an independent learner?
I will teach in a method that forces students to be able to learn on their own with help from me. Over time I will give less and less help so the student will eventually learn how to learn.
How would you help a student stay motivated?
For most students I will use candy to keep them motivated. If that does not work I hope to find common interests with the students to help keep them interested and motivated.
