What is your teaching philosophy?
I believe in hands-on learning whenever possible. In my experience, concepts are learned in a more lasting way if students are able to use reasoning and discuss the material they're learning instead of simply memorizing facts.
What might you do in a typical first session with a student?
In a first session, I would get to know the student's learning style, goals, and their starting point in the subject. We could then make a plan for success together.
