This means not only asking the question, "How is this idea relevant to the modern day?" but also to pose to your student, "How is this relevant to you, to your individual life?" When one does the latter, one not only cultivates an intellect, but cultivates a relationship as well, and that is key to effective pedagogy.

...methods. Particularly in cases of test prep (but also as a general guideline), I like to focus on a student's strengths, not weaknesses. I evaluate to see what kind of thinking a student employs and teach them how to identify and answer those questions. Then we look for ways to use those strengths to address other questions and build up expertise from that. I have found that this helps students feel confident about their own...
