prefer to start off by finding out what methods you are using and figuring out from that what style of learning will be best. then I would want to bring out what your/my students priorities are subjects wise in order tailor the sessions to the students specific needs.
once this is established I will focus on either content or exam technique depending on what is most necessary, as for many subjects such as chemistry and biology, the biggest struggle for students tends to be exam technique and not content
ope communication is also a priority for me as I know school an be stressful and time consuming, and I do not want my students to feel burnt out, therefore on weeks where the timetabled lesson may be too much, I will have a few less intense lessons using more fun learning tools such as Kahoot, drawing diagrams and helping with homework. by helping with homework I mean helping with difficult questions that may cause stress, or making plans on how the student should begin to tackle large tasks or a stressful backlog of homework. I addition in these less intense sessions we can re discuss how to deal with stress
