Working with one student
I am currently teaching medical terminology for a single student who needs to repeat the class. I found that the memory game worked the best. Of course, there is no competition with other students. This seemed to increase his level of self confidence as well. kjc
Anytime you are teaching a class to a single student, things can be very difficult I find. I have only had to do this once and I found it difficult at times to keep her interested even though she was the only one in class. I found that games did work best too. We would do matching, the memory game, computer based jeoprady, and crosswords too.
Blake, thank you for sharing your experience. I find it hard to teach one person by lecturing.

I find that a lot of times the quiet students are very intimidated by the students in class that are a lot more loud. Sometimes they need that one on one to really grasp the information. I always offer extra help on top of the class hours. That one on one time really helps some of the students
Tatiana, this is a great support service for your students. They are lucky to have you!

I have had 4 studens in a class, But, one? That must have been a long drawn out course for them.
