I came across your channel today, and i am so glad i did. Answer to Q3...I do this by being a role model for the students. I show no partiality towards any student and make sure not to have any favorite in my class. All students are treated fairly, and I always encourage my students to do the same. I also include social and emotional learning sessions where students have the chance to discuss how they would handle basic misunderstandings themselves in a mature manner. I am a high school teacher, thanks.
I am so happy to welcome you to our community! Your approach to fostering a positive learning environment is spot on. Scholars thrive in an environment where there is equity, care, and consistency. As a former high school teacher I know how important it is to take care of the social emotional development of students while simultaneously raising expectations for academic performance. Keep going!!! You’re on the right path. 😊
Don’t worry about that. We live in a world where diversity is ever increasing and education is the place where we remind everyone that everyone is on their own learning journey…even our professional educators. Just be your authentic self and let the principal see that. There is a great for of a school for all of us.
Thank you for this Sir! I am a first year beginning teacher in sped and this video really helped me reflect on my teaching practices. My first job interview begins in 3 hours, I'm glad I stumbled this at the last minute.
Excellent and quality delivery. What I adored most is that you spoke from the heart..I crave being around educators like you. I do have it in me to deliver BUT the environment can be very challenging at times.
Thank you so much for the feedback! I truly appreciate it. I know that the environment can be challenging at times. I would urge you to still let empathy and compassion be your guide as you approach the work every single day. In my 23 years…this has been my approach and I have so many more good days than bad days. Keep up the good work and I’ll do my best to keep sharing helpful content to support you and the rest of our community. 😊
Great content! I will be interviewing for a CTE position next week. When I first looked up "teacher interview questions", it seemed like the suggested list of videos put out there would never end. After a few scrolls down, I'm glad I found this one. Thanks!
Thank you very much sir for your very informative video. It will help me as one of a teacher aspirants in the US. I tried to be equipped of what you are talking but to grow professionally and for growth and development.🙏 I have watched many of your videos already.
I am glad that you are finding the information helpful. The intent of the channel is to give you insights and strategies for preparing and excelling in the interview so check out as many episodes as you think will be helpful.
Thank you so much Sir for your very informative statement. I tried to be equipped of what you are saying in order not only to get a job but to grow professionally in nurturing young learners, make my lesson more engaging to them.
Thank you for the kind words. I appreciate you being a part of our community. I will keep providing resources and information to help you along the way in your professional journey. Keep up your hard work.
Let me look back through the episode catalog and find some content on tech integration. I would definitely point you to this week’s episode that touches on the topic. I anticipate releasing that episode by mid week.
Thank you for the comment and adding value to our community. Much appreciated! Also, I could agree more with your strategy. Structure, routines, and consistency is so important for scholars in the beginning. It creates clear expectations at the outset for the classroom. 👍🏾
I believe in differentiating instructions. I use scafolding and multiple learning activities to make sure all the students. However, I am always thinking, where on the grade scale should I fairly place each strugling student .
Thomas…thank you for the comment and contributing to the community. I think when you consider how to grade a student (struggling or otherwise) it starts with the fundamental of are you focused on mastery of concepts or regurgitation of information. I give that framework because I believe students are on a journey and grading/assessing their performance is complicated. So start with that question and then determine how to grade your students.
I have my interview today! I am most anxious about completely blanking and not srtitculating myself properly. I'm nervous that I won't be able to convey who I am as a teacher! Thank you for this video 🙏
How did the interview go??? I hope it went well for you! Just remember whenever you are in an Interview the panel is rooting for you to do well. Just relax, be yourself and let your passion for teaching and students shine through. 😊
I would have to agree that this is a big anxiety point for me also! I have a couple interviews coming up, and I feel like there's so much information packed into my brain, but it's difficult to pull it out at the right moment all the time. Also, I think I talk too fast, so slowing myself down is another thing I need to focus on. Thanks for the great videos!
@@agyarestephen1674 spend time in the community. Immerse yourself in the community. Listen to the students and the things they share about the places they go and the activities they enjoy. This is an immediate strategy to build rapport and connections with your students and community.
Wow. This is amazing. Thanks for speaking from the heart. I really appreciate how you share your insights and wisdom to us especially to the teacher-applicants. More videos of this. God bless you.
Thank you so much! I am glad that you find the videos helpful. I am just hoping to inspire as many educators as possible. Thank you for helping to build our important community.

I've been working in the schools since 2009 and have been working as an Interim teacher since 2015. Interim jobs are drying up, so I decided to get certified. I passed all of my certification requirements with a temp Social Sciences 6-12. I flopped the interviews big time. I walked in like I had this nailed because I have passed all these required tests...and very hard ones too. Nevertheless, there was little interest at the job fair. I was surprised by the questions and I've spent a lot of time going over what worked and what didn't work. They asked me questions looking for things like formative assessments. As they were asking me, I kept thinking to myself, why doesn't this guy know how teaching works. I realized, after watching some videos, they wanted to see if I knew those things! They were interviewing people with no teaching experience.
Thank you for sharing your current experience with interviewing. I beleive it is informative for our community. Stay current with teaching practices but also expand your perspective to include lots of other facets of the education process. Formative assessments, participating in Professional Learning Committees, embedding yourself in lots of ways with the school community are front and center for school principals and district hiring officials when making decisions about candidates.
Do you think I'm not getting employed by a school district because of my age? I've been interviewing all up and down California for 7 years now. I have to admit every time I have an interview I'm super nervous. This will be my last interview 😢. I give up. I am taking your advice as my last chance attempt. I may not be good at interviewing, but I'm darn good at teaching Art. They are missing out because they don't give practical interviews. Thank you for what I hope to be my chance to finally win.
I certainly hope that is not the case. I hope the interview goes well and the principal of panel sees your passion for helping students. Have you also ever explored the charter school route? There are so targeted or thematic programs (specifically around Art) that you could finding interesting. That gives you an additional avenue to explore. Wishing that best of luck for you.
I hope you got a chance to prove yourself! There is a shortage of teachers and you would think that the principals would see past the nerves. I am currently looking for a position as well. I would suggest that you take breaks to get some self care, then try in other cities, counties, or states!
@@frana.4086 Well, It's over! Thank you all for your hope, well wishes and great suggestions. It will kill me to continue. I'm afraid to try anymore. I see this happening with children. To many "evaluated" failures, the higher the drop-outs! Oh well, some of "back yard engineers" will count their money from that business they started right out of High School.
So nervous about my interview tomorrow. I am Not sure what kind of questions they will ask me when working in a multicultural classroom. I have a very strong behavioral background and Spanish is my first language. I feel like am going to go blank in my interview.
Do your best to do some breathing exercises right before. You just want to do your best to slow your heart rate down. Long deep breaths and then tell yourself, “You got this!” I wish you the best of luck with your interview.

The most anxiety is having a panel interview for an education assistant position. Panel interviews; why and what are the essential questions being asked.
Thanks for the question. Let me ask a clarifying question. What type of education assistant position? Is it a paraprofessional position in a special education program, a regular education program, a language acquisition program, or something else? This will help answer your question.
Thanks a lot for all this tips!! I have watched many of your videos already. I’m an international ESL teacher applying for an H1B visa. I am just waiting for the principal’s interview. Do you know when the principals usually start interviewing for new school year?
Thanks so much for watching the videos and being a part of the community. As far as interviews for the new year, most principals will interview throughout the late spring and all summer once budgets and staffing allotments are done by district central offices. Best of luck! Let us know if you get the job. We’ve got our fingers crossed for you. 🤞🏾😊
Hi Gordon, thank you so much for these videos. Honestly I've been watching a lot of these types of videos and yours are the most succinct and useful. Love your audio recording quality as well. One question about your answer on differentiation - by incorporating "visual, auditory, and kinesthetic" activities, you mean this as providing a multi-modal type of instruction, right? I ask because because I know the empirical research doesn't support the claim that we should differentiate in regards to a child's specific type of "learning style." Do you have any experiences with this?
Thank you for commenting and being a part of our community. I appreciate the engagement. With respect to your question about differentiation…you are exactly correct. When I say use different modalities it is to provide different forms of learning engagement that will create a classroom full of energetic learners because they see connections to learning through various ways.
My experience is this area leads me to coach and support my teachers to be dynamics in their instructional design process and to include multiple modes of instruction. Again my goal is for teachers to create learning on- ramps where we invite our scholars into the learning process and using various forms of instruction connects with our students in different ways. Hope this helps. 😊
Good morning Gloria. Thanks for the question. Stay tuned for a series of community posts. I will share the long form answers to each question that way.
Can you expand? Tell me more. I haven’t seen or been a part of an interview that delves into specific philosophical frameworks. In my experience it has always been much more generalized….in what interviewer may be asking when tapping into educational philosophy.
@@gordonamerson28 I was watching Kathleen Jasper video on teacher interview prep and she goes over the different philosophies, two of which I mentioned. Another one is progressivism; a focus on real-world problem solving.
Got it. Thanks for sharing that info. I am familiar with Kathleen’s channel. She does really good work. By chance do you gave the link or the can you give me the title of the video you are referring to? I’d like to watch it.
I have one for you, I am interviewing for a teaching position at a highschool to teach a trade and I don't have a college degree but do have 50,000 hours of experience in the related field. My interview is with teachers and people with doctorate degrees. I have taught for three years for my previous employers new hires and the certifications thay received do transfer to college credit. I was wondering what advice you have for a not teacher interviewing for a technician teaching position?
The beauty of career technical education is just how important career expertise and technical expertise can be in a classroom. My advice is to focus on that 50,000 hours of experience, the tangible benefits, the value added, and the expertise to go out and do technical work that will produce effective outcomes for students, for people, and for a community. That’s what you harness and leverage in the interview. That’s what you showcase and highlight for the interview panel.
@@gordonamerson28 I nailed the interview today, thanks for the advice. Hired pending board approval. You videos helped get me ready. I had not had an interview in 26 years.
Hmmm my major challenge is that I’m from Africa and I have a mathematics interview at teach savana but I have been thinking how to pass this interview since I’m not in America 😮
Tell me more about Teach Savana. I’m not familiar. But with respect to your interview and not being in America, have you explored resources on (I believe it is a H1B VIsas) to work in the US as a teacher? It is not my area of expertise but let me look around there are some RUclips channels that specialize in that particular process.
Hi Gordon....I am encourage to apply teaching job in the U.S, Im a Filipino with 17yrs teaching experience. Do I have a chance to be accepted at my age of 42?
You absolutely do! 17 years of teaching experience is so valuable and needed. We will always need educators who are passionate and want to use this experience to inspire our scholars. Best of luck to you.
Hello, I am a Special Education teacher here Philippines dreaming for employment in USA, but as now I did not passed the Principal Interview, patiently waiting.. Thank you for this vedio I learned a lot for my incoming interview.
Thank you for being a part of our community. I can tell you that Mathematics teachers have and will always be in high demand. Have taken any steps to explore teaching in the US?
@@gordonamerson28 thank you Sir for responding to my message. I'm grateful. I wish I could get in touch with you so I discuss some personal issues about the application. This notwithstanding I am watching your videos to learn more. Thanks Sir
Can you tell me about some commonly asking school teacher interview questions and answers, especially by UK head teachers.I am from India and I don't know about the UK school system and curriculum.
This is a great summary from your perspective, but I am a bit concerned that all five of these questions are worded and ordered exactly as the questions addressed and talked about in a video posted three years ago by @Ayyoteach (ruclips.net/video/-RJMwxtNVqU/видео.html). If that video had any influence on this video, I think a reference or citation in the video summary would be in order.

For a principal whos inetrviewing--- what are the keywords he/she needed to hear with a question what is ur biggest contrubution to the curriculum?
As to the voice of the applicant. What tone volume pace and pitch is the excellent one for the panel?

Good questions…as usual. 😊 With respect to assignments, it’s all about your purpose and intent. In my opinion assignments are a way to monitor student progress. As such, they should be frequent enough to be able to gauge if students are learning or if opportunities to reteach content is necessary. The number and frequency should be driven by two things. Teacher discretion and student need.
Keywords that principals are looking for when it comes to curriculum are “evidence based” “data driven” “inquiry focused”. When it comes to curriculum we are looking for dynamic educators focused on being cutting edge in the design and development of curriculum.

But with respect to your interview and not being in America, have you explored resources on (I believe it is a H1B VIsas) to work in the US as a teacher? It is not my area of expertise but let me look around there are some RUclips channels that specialize in that particular process.
Appreciate this a lot❤❤😇😇🙏
My pleasure! Glad that the content is helpful. Thanks for being a part of our community.
Hi Gordon....I am encourage to apply teaching job in the U.S, Im a Filipino with 17yrs teaching experience. Do I have a chance to be accepted at my age of 42?
You absolutely do! 17 years of teaching experience is so valuable and needed. We will always need educators who are passionate and want to use this experience to inspire our scholars. Best of luck to you.
Do you have any links for international Elementary Teachers in USA?
Hi Janeil. Thanks for your question. Let me see if I can put together some resources for you.
I’m also interested sir

I have school teacher interviews for UK after two months. Can you help me
Absolutely! How can I assist you? What would be helpful to you in your preparation?
Can you tell me about some commonly asking school teacher interview questions and answers, especially by UK head teachers.I am from India and I don't know about the UK school system and curriculum.
This is a great summary from your perspective, but I am a bit concerned that all five of these questions are worded and ordered exactly as the questions addressed and talked about in a video posted three years ago by @Ayyoteach (ruclips.net/video/-RJMwxtNVqU/видео.html). If that video had any influence on this video, I think a reference or citation in the video summary would be in order.
Thanks for the feedback! I appreciate you tuning in and contributing to our growing community.
