To bring the subject some significant context, I believe it would serve to start a topic by first reviewing its benefit. After that I would certainly run through some simple cases. I need to emphasise that there are no silly enquiries, anything to assist a tutee's understanding is essential. After I've run through a few instances, I would love to have the student gone through their personal case, talking to me pretending they were the tutor and I was the tutee.
Lots of researches have shown that attempting to explain a principle you have a little while ago learned helps profoundly in memorisation and also understanding. If I'm satisfied with their training, I wish to check their critical thinking by giving them an issue based on whatever learned in the lesson, yet with refined changes that need the student to actively involve with the work, instead of be on "autopilot".
Homework will certainly be set on the material reviewed (nothing extra intense), as well as better lessons will be spent responding to exam-styled questions prior to moving on to the following topic.
Throughout sessions I would love to encourage a rather casual, friendly atmosphere. I have a good time mentor, and I hope students have a good time in my training sessions, and also a relaxed mind is better at studying.
