What is your teaching philosophy?
Continued self-study by the teacher is essential. I find it very effective to incorporate real-world examples as much as possible so the student feels invested in learning. The goal is not simply to know, but to understand.
What might you do in a typical first session with a student?
General overview of goals and expectations, get a feel for the learning style of the student, and get started with the subject matter.
