I would aim to get to know the student and create a positive vibe between us where the student could talk to me about the problems with the subject, and help them with the topics they are struggling with. After getting to know the student, I will initially give the student a test that will cover all the topics taken over the year. With this test, it will help with knowing where the student is at, in terms of pace and understanding, and also highlight the topics the student struggles with, if there is any. From there I will have an understanding of which topics I will take extra time with, and the topics I could make the student more confident in. People work at different paces, so understanding that and working to that, not only helps the student but encourages them too. In terms of tracking the progress of the student, I will ensure that after every topic, a test will be taken to ensure that the topic is learnt to highest level. I will also ensure that we take monthly tests, so that the topics learnt over a month won't be forgotten, then at the end of the subject, when all topics are covered, there will be a test, which would cover all topics and help show whether all topics where learnt over the course of the lessons. The tests will help in showing the level of understanding, and whether the approach of teaching should be the same or another approach should be taken to help the student.
