How can you help a student become an independent learner?
I would give the student assignments to be completed on his own and then reviewed by me. I would ask the student to devise a lesson plan for me on a topic with which he is having problems.
How would you help a student stay motivated?
I would give lots of positive feedback, beginning with exercises the student can master fairly easily, and progressing to more advanced exercises slowly. I would give reading assignments on topics of interest to the student.
If a student has difficulty learning a skill or concept, what would you do?
I would try to explain the concept verbally and in writing, and ask the student to do research and teach me the concept.
What types of materials do you typically use during a tutoring session?
I use exercise books, internet-based videos, news and other topical magazines. For young children, I use actual objects.
