  Case: How well has your college/university prepared you for the teaching profession?
If you are asked this question in a job interview for a teaching position: What are some things you should avoid when 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 am stuck on this question, as this question has many layers to it. If I was asked this question during my interview, I would have to think about this. I do think that my university has prepared me well in a lot of areas, but also has neglected a lot of other important matters. I have learned a lot on my feet and in-person while teaching in the school system. My program goes into the science behind the thinking and teaching process. I have learned a lot and have grown a lot with all of the information I have learned. I wish that the program had a more hands-on approach and real-life correlation to teaching in the county. There are a lot of disconnects within the program, verse teaching each day. This is a great question to get me thinking and it grabbed my attention!
