What is your teaching philosophy?
My philosophy and definition of education are formed from personal experiences, data from my classroom, and research through different teaching strategies through technology and real world approaches. Education's purpose is to answer the question "why?", and to fulfill the craving of knowing more. The purpose of an educator-- the tutor-- is not only to provide the information to that question but to create that spark to know more. An educator/teacher/tutor can be the most knowledgeable person in his content area that the student knows. However, if that knowledge that the teacher provides is not transferrable, it is irrelevant.
