  Case: Extra-curriculars or no extra-curriculars?
I've always been told that "once you're a coach, you're always a coach." In addition, principals love when newly hired faculty is willing to help coach or volunteer for a club. If you're asked this question in the interview, how would you respond? If a principal asks if you would be willing to sponsor clubs or coach, yet you think it's something you wouldn't want to do, would you tell them? How could you answer this question without saying a flat out "no?"
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
Although it makes yourself highly marketable to agree to extra-curricular activities, if it doesn't suit your personality, I would not agree to it. I would however, make it known that you are willing to help outside of the classroom in an area that better suits you. (Offering tutoring, perhaps?)
