What is your teaching philosophy?
My teaching philosophy is more student lead than teaching lead. I do not want to waste time teaching students what they know and not focus in on the parts that they need to know. Therefore, I'd rather the students work out the problems and allow for me to see what they know how to do, and I can better assist them with how to get through the parts they do not know.
What might you do in a typical first session with a student?
In an initial tutoring session with a student, I would like to start our session off with asking the student if they like or don't like math and why or why not. Then I would like to have the student tell me how they typically prepare for math homework, quizzes, and/or tests.
How can you help a student become an independent learner?
I can help a student become an independent learner by making sure, when I am going over a concept, they understand what I am covering, and that the student can show they have mastered the concept with 100 percent accuracy on a short quiz that I have prepared for them.
