What is your teaching philosophy?
I craft my teaching approach on an individual basis, depending on the student's age, interests, and personal learning style. I prefer to take a hands-on approach to subjects, as I believe that the more engaged students are, the more they are able to retain information and stay focused.
What might you do in a typical first session with a student?
A typical first session would involve me talking to students about their learning goals, and trying to identify which aspects of the material they are having trouble with in order to craft a long-term study and learning plan.
