What is your teaching philosophy?
I believe that all students can learn whatever you offer them. It is just a matter of self-motivation and confidence in their abilities.
What might you do in a typical first session with a student?
I would do introductions about my background, the student's goals and desired outcomes. I would also establish measurable benchmarks and a realistic timeline.
How can you help a student become an independent learner?
In order to become an independent learner, a student needs to build a high level of self-motivation and what they want to achieve through learning a skill/subject. The underlying key is the building of the student's self-confidence.
How would you help a student stay motivated?
I would try different ways of approaching the subject. I would also be very patient and work on the pieces that the student does not understand.
