I prefer a relaxed approach to teaching - I'll give a presentation, talk it through, and ask questions. The student will, then, be given a couple of tasks to do, like any typical lesson, which we'll go through once they've finished. I will never give homework, unless they miss a class and need to catch up, or want something extra to do to help them out. If they don't understand something, we'll go through it, trying different ways to understand it, until something clicks and they do understand. Some things are harder to learn than others, it's understandable. However, I may give out tasks that will help them manage stress and help them learn/relearn. These could be tasks to destress (like taking a walk, drawing, reading, etc), or something that would help them in the long run (like making revision cards, or reading revision guides, etc). These tasks won't be homework per se but would be useful in the long run.
As I do online lessons, it'll always be a presentation shown and some talking. But I'll also find videos to help them out, as well as make padlets and interactive slides to engage with them more. I'm not too fussed if the student has their camera on or not, as long as I can see them right at the start, just to make sure that it's them.
I'll never ask for more work than necessary off of them, and will always put 110% into my research and knowledge to help them out. The student comes first, and I aim to make their learning experience as good as I possibly could.
