Teaching Style
My methodology and approach to tutoring
What is your teaching philosophy?
It is my belief that, through education, an individual will receive vital skills and tools that are necessary to build a life that is successful and prosperous. Within an educational setting, students should be continually encouraged to solve logical problems. As a teacher, I believe that learning takes place in a safe, open, and supportive environment where students learn the important aspects of developing and fostering positive relationships with others through collaborative planning, group discussion, and reflection. Teaching is a noble and highly rewarding profession and one of the better ways to contribute to the betterment of society. During my journey of becoming a teacher, many people have helped me to establish my career goals and objectives, including family members. Learning occurs when a student is fully engaged in the process, makes personal connection with the information taught and applies that knowledge to variety of experiences.
What might you do in a typical first session with a student?
List down strengths and weaknesses of particular topic/content and Solve graded exercises to know the problem area.

The first lesson was good, and we liked the teacher, but the proposed timing may not always work for us, and it is a challenge to work around the proposed schedule.
