What might you do in a typical first session with a student?
I would get to know the student. I need to know what they are working on and what they are having trouble with. I would also like to know what they are doing well. This information will help me move the session in a productive direction.
How would you help a student stay motivated?
I think it is important to set goals. When the student reaches those goals, there should be a reward. It does not have to be something big, but it must be something the student finds motivating.
What is your teaching philosophy?
I believe every student learns their own way, and it is my job to teach in a way that the student can understand. I will use any teaching aids available and use scenarios that the student can relate to.
