What is your teaching philosophy?
My teaching philosophy is a one that enables the student to learn at a comfortable rate of speed, while adjusting to his/her learning style as well as achieving the original academic goal in a timely fashion.
What might you do in a typical first session with a student?
During the first session with the student, I will ask the student a few questions about their hobbies to a get better idea of the personality type the student exhibits. I will also find out all the previous knowledge the student has obtained from the particular subject I will be tutoring. Lastly, we will cover the fundamentals of the subject to familiarize the student with the rules to better understand the area he or she has been struggling in.
How can you help a student become an independent learner?
I can help a student become an independent learner by teaching the student how to build a strong foundation pertaining to the subject, because most concepts build off of one another.
How would you help a student stay motivated?
I would help a student stay motivated by continuously encouraging the student as well as showing the student many different learning techniques that will increase confidence and produce a desired grade.
