What is your teaching philosophy?
Communication. When a student doesn't understand a concept, it is because that concept hasn't been communicated to them properly. I hope to find ways of communicating that will demystify complicated topics for my students.
What might you do in a typical first session with a student?
跟我一个典型的第一次会议将开始与ten to fifteen minutes of informal conversation. There is nothing to be gained from working with a student who doesn't feel as though they can have an open conversation with me.
