Frequently asked questions
What is your typical process for working with a new student?
My initial session with a student includes a thorough assessment of his strengths and weaknesses in a subject. After analysis, I construct a plan of action that guides me through the tutoring sessions. I frequently evaluate a student's progress with quick assessments of skills to monitor growth. I include as many visually inticing and hands-on activities that I can.
