Personally I believe a combination of leading by solving examples and picture visualisations it key to fully grasping a mathematical concept. I also frequent colloquial analogies in hopes that students can form a connection between maths and daily life.
I prefer a mixture of online and in person. For concept introduction classes, I prefer online teaching with slide decks. A month prior to student exams, I believe in person instruction is key.
Calculus, algebra and probability are my strong suits. I update myself through constant communication at least a week prior to class.
I prefer to be honest and seek the parents' advice when the student faces difficulties. After all the parents and I went through the same process and I'd appreciate all the help I get.
If the student requests practice exercises I would be more than happy to provide them. But I would also need to base it off of past papers of the students' institution. Online tutorials are one of my key beliefs in achieving mathematical success.
I save the last part of class to watch students complete harder questions in their homework to ensure they have no problem taking on easier ones.
I communicate openly with the student and their parents to ensure the right fit. After all, compatible communication takes time and patience from both ends.
Unforunately, I do not have experience so far with students with learning disabilities but I have volunteered to teach at a special needs primary school to gain first hand experience. It;s been going great so far!
