Teaching methodology
I consider two things very important. the connect with the student and the lesson plan. As written in many old scripts the best way of transferring knowledge is through a good conversation. So i try to make the class as interactive as possible. Also a personalized lesson plan is very necessary to know what we are targeting in a specific time frame.
