What is your teaching philosophy?

我的教学理念是,一切都变得easier with practice. You can apply that to everything in life, from learning a new language to learning how to ride a bike. The more you practice, the easier it gets! The easier it gets, the more you love it!

What might you do in a typical first session with a student?

At my first session with a student, I will probably ask them some questions to get to know their learning style. Once I know how they prefer to learn, I can personalize my lessons and techniques to help them.

How can you help a student become an independent learner?

Teaching students fun tips and tricks to practice and learn outside of a tutoring lesson will help them become an independent learner. There are several exercises students can do in their everyday life to keep learning and mastering a subject.

How would you help a student stay motivated?

By being encouraging! Positivity goes a long way!

How would you help a student get excited/engaged with a subject that they are struggling in?

A great way to get a student engaged and excited about a subject is by finding out what interests the student. What do they like? What kind of music and tv shows do they follow? Knowing simple, but personal things about a student will help me find ways to get them excited about what I'm teaching.
