Learning Differences
Math 1
What might you do in a typical first session with a student?
I always like to find out what common interests I have with a student before starting a session. Then, we will use the common interest to help create a learning model to overcome the student's hurdles.
How can you help a student become an independent learner?
Probing questions and teaching the student what to look for in certain situations makes the student an independent learner.
How would you help a student stay motivated?
Telling thought provoking parables and telling the students about people who were once in their shoes make the obstacle appear a little bit smaller. Also, a teacher often must tell a student how he/she had to overcome the obstacle. Then, the student would recognize their struggle is normal.
