I believe that individual attention can help people reach their full potential. Everyone has their own way of learning, and combining that learning style with hard work is the key to achieving success.

I would first determine what the student's goals and areas of difficulties are. After determining this, I ask the student what best helps them learn, or try to figure it out one on one with the student. Figuring out the specific learning styles, such as visual aids, repetition, etc., helps me make sure the student is learning comfortably and efficiently.

By helping the student learn how they best learn, and what they should most work on, the student can then focus on their weaknesses and use their newfound knowledge on how they best learn to overcome them. I also provide the student with outside sources they can turn to if they need additional help.

At times, it is overwhelming seeing how much work there is to be done to achieve a goal. I, thus, find it best to "divide and conquer," splitting large tasks into smaller, achievable goals. Seeing goals accomplished and build up over time is incredibly motivating, and reminds one of the bigger picture without seeming too daunting.

I would break the skill or concept into smaller chunks. Sometimes misunderstanding arises from not comprehending foundational skills. By determining the root of the problem, the student can focus on relearning the foundational skill or concept they are struggling with, and then build on top of it to learn the more complicated skill or concept.

I break down the passage into smaller components, and work on learning each part individually. Then, I transition to seeing how the parts fit together and the overall meaning of the piece. This also helps determine whether there was a specific part of the reading the student struggled with or whether the student was struggling with an overarching theme.

I have found that making a plan of our focuses and goals helps students greatly because it gives them something to work towards. I also have found that repetition helps a lot of people learn really well. I, thus, try to incorporate repetition of past concepts into lessons so they are reinforced.

I try to relate the subject into something relevant that they are interested in. For example, memorizing a physics equation is made far more interesting by showing the student how it directly applies to their everyday life. Visual aids and videos that show the concepts in a novel way also help make the subject more understandable and fascinating.

I would use verbal and written testing to make sure that the student understands the material. It is extremely important that the student can apply the concept to multiple problems themselves, and not just one example problem. If the student is able to walk me through the problem in simple terms themselves after having learned it, I know they understand the material well.

I show the student the progress they have made by giving them positive reinforcement and reiterating the concepts or skills they are doing well. By also focusing on what the student's strengths are, I am able to show the student not only what they've improved on but also what ways of studying worked for them well (for example, they can apply the learning strategies they used on their strengths to other areas).

I evaluate a student's needs by determining their weaknesses and strengths from our lessons when we've broken the concepts into smaller parts. I discuss what the students find difficult and try to assess the difficulties during the lesson as well.

I try to follow the learning style of the student specifically. Different learning styles include visual, verbal, mathematical, and many others. Visual learners, for example, benefit greatly from visual aids, such as tables and charts.

I typically use concise visual aids of the information in my tutoring sessions. This can be anything from bullet pointed outlines to tables and charts. I also give the student external sources they can use, such as videos or links that explain concepts.
