什么是你教ing philosophy?
My teaching philosophy is that every child is able to learn, so as a teacher I present it in as many ways as necessary for the child!
What might you do in a typical first session with a student?
My first session will be getting to know the student and seeing what their learning style is.
How can you help a student become an independent learner?
一个学生必须有good self-esteem in order to be confident in taking the lead of learning! I will build self-esteem while helping the student discover what they already know.
How would you help a student stay motivated?
Interact with the student and have the student call me out on mistakes I make on purpose!
If a student has difficulty learning a skill or concept, what would you do?
I would approach the concept in a different manner, and if needed reteach the concept using a totally different style.
How do you help students who are struggling with reading comprehension?
I would lessen the amount of reading and work with comprehension strategies that I have learned in working with students for 10 years.
What strategies have you found to be most successful when you start to work with a student?
The most successful strategy I have found is to relate the concept being taught to something the student enjoys.
How would you help a student get excited/engaged with a subject that they are struggling in?
I would engage the struggling student in the subject they are weak in by relating concepts to personal experiences.
What techniques would you use to be sure that a student understands the material?
The technique I use the most is to have the student compare and contrast concepts and tell me how they would teach a younger person that same concept.
How do you build a student's confidence in a subject?
I build a student's confidence by purposely making mistakes and allowing the student to point the mistake out to me, without them knowing I made the mistake on purpose
How do you evaluate a student's needs?
I evaluate a student's needs as they are working.
How do you adapt your tutoring to the student's needs?
I adapt my tutoring to the student's needs by relating the need to the student's personal experiences.
What types of materials do you typically use during a tutoring session?
I use writing utensils, paper, and any type of hands on objects that are within arm’s reach that will help the student make a connection between the problems at hand and what they already know.
