Case: What is your biggest weakness?
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!)
Weaknesses should reflect those affecting the individual and NOT the classroom. As an interviewing administrator, I almost always eliminate those who identify weaknesses, despite the encouraged honesty. An example of this is, "I involve myself so much in the school community I rarely have time for my own family." or, "I am so transparent that I find myself with a lack of a personal life." |

Comments: I already commented on this. I feel like this commenter has poor personal ethics and thinks that lying is more honorable than truth. |

Comments: I believe having weaknesses is a part of being human. No one is perfect. I don't think punishing those who identify weaknesses is helpful, nice, or respectful. |
