What is your teaching philosophy?
Every person has a unique learning style that must be observed and catered to. I like to assess where my students currently are, and take an active approach to improving their knowledge in a certain subject area. I believe that learning is fun. Once challenges are met, we often feel rewarded.
How would you help a student stay motivated?
It is important to me to encourage my students and to let them know when they are doing well. Once I identify their strengths, I can help them enhance in these areas while also actively working on weaknesses.
If a student has difficulty learning a skill or concept, what would you do?
I would work on identifying where the disconnect exists, and then create multiple learning plans and assessments to introduce the material in different ways.
