I have found that it is important to develop a relationship with the student in order to understand his/her needs and determine how to communicate effectively with the student. Second, I believe that asking questions to lead the student to the correct answers on his/ her own is an effective method that encourages learning rather than memorization. Lastly, I think that encouragement and positive feedback motivates students to study and become more independent and enthusiastic about their work.
