Interview Questions

fintan109

I'm preparing for an interview later in the week. I'm preparing for questions based around my teaching subjects (what's the course content, 2012 exam etc), discipline in the classroom (how would you handle X situation etc), other interview style questions such as strengths/weaknesses in teaching, why you became a teacher etc.

What other questions should/could I expect???

Also, are there any 'sticky' questions they could ask me? Were there any questions you hadnt anticipated being asked in an interview before?

Thanks for your help

You are better off doing a search here on board and on edposts type in interview questions there are hundreds of threads there already, if you go through a few of them you will get a pretty comprehensive set of questions, starting a new thread each time you may find that you are not getting all the answers as people stop posting the same thing numerous times.

Last year I used the old threads here and on edposts to get all the info and there is a huge amount already there.

My advice do a search rather than ask here as you may miss some important things starting a new thread

Fintan what can you bring to this school that none of the other interviewees can? Extra curricular activities, talents, ideas for transition year modules, what can you give them the next guy (who can teach English or maths or whatever) can't?
