Case: When did you first become interested in teaching?
If you are asked this question in a job interview for a teaching position: What are some things you should avoid responding to this question? What might be some important points to stress that would get the interviewer's attention? How would you respond to this question?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
Some have known that they wanted to become a teacher since they were very young, but that was not the case with me. I did not discover my passion for teaching until I was a junior in high school. I started teaching dance classes at my dance studio to the younger kids and fell in love with the reward of helping the students reach new limits. Seeing their improvement from one week to the next was all the convincing I needed to choose teaching as my life-long career. |

Comments: As I too have a background in dance, teaching class at a dance studio also led me to where I am today. I think one thing to avoid saying is that "I love children" and "want to help them learn" as these are vague and empty statements. |
