Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Honestly, it was not that difficult. The question that mattered the most to them was how I viewed my students and how I would respond to conflict (basic classroom management). IF you do not have experience in teaching make sure you have thought through this because any school wants to hear that you believe that respect is the foundation for your interactions with the students.
