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!)
I don't think there is much that should be avoided when trying to answer this question because so long as someone is passionate, I don't think it matter when they became interested in teaching. There are people who realize they want to be a teacher once they become older, but there are also people who have wanted to teach since they were in school themselves. I think for me, I have always been interested in working with children I just wasn't sure how. It wasn't until I was applying for college that I realized that this career seemed to fit me best. |

| Comments: I agree. The moment when a person discovers that they are interested in teaching has nothing to do with how qualified or not qualified a person is for the profession. Just like you said, so long as they are passionate about it. |

| Comments: If I were in this situation, I would do exactly this. I do not think that there is a right or wrong answer to this question necessarily, but I would take this approach when explaining my personal story as to how and when I became interested in becoming an educator. This answer will be honest and to the point, and will grab the interviewer's attention. |
