in this case, I would think about who you would be teaching. What would be the best way to teach them?
A paragraph isn't asking for tons of information - just trying to get a sense if you understand developmental concerns for your clientele, and how you would go about helping to foster it.
Google teaching philosophy - read a few - and go from there.
Hope that helps.
