There is no doubt that the competition for teaching jobs is extremely difficult. Ho HS teacher interview committees where we had narrowed to four people for apprenticeships open and it broke my heart that I say three of them that are not working, even if teachers are very good.

If you receive calls for interviews, but are not able to seal the deal and get a teaching job, you need every aspect of popInterview with ... To know every little thing to break with the strong competition from each other.

There are many things that teachers should do during the interview, but one of the most often overlooked, issues the committee meeting.

I am always shocked, many applicants simply do not like ... or do not put so much stress, it must be so. With questions you accomplish two main objectives. One who will determine whether this is really the right place for teachingShe and two, come and give the appearance of confidence ... Do not underestimate you.

Also, going to hire the right questions at the right time to initiate and control the job interview. The interview will be more than a two-way conversation between colleagues of the same level as it is a way-interview, in which the candidate is simply Fielding questions from superiors.

I've always said that the best interviews are those who do not "seem", asInterviews ... considered natural ... felt like conversations.

However, the question of what is asked, are equally important. You want to provide not only the questions, questions ... They ask the right questions. And asking the right questions during the interview teacher will be separated from other candidates who are for the doctrine of equal work.

Unfortunately, many people are apparently not easy to come with the right questions.

Here are10 questions you should ask your teacher during the next interview:

1. How many classes I teach?

2. How many "PREPS" takes this position? (Remember, you can only teach 5 classes, but when one of four different "PREPS" to four different topics you may need to be in trouble)

3. If I had my own classroom? (Once I can teach in different classes, teaching is much more difficult)

4. You have a mentor teacher program? (A teacher, mentorProgram is the grace of a new teacher savings, but the experienced teachers can benefit from them as well)

5. Do I have the opportunity for professional development? You want (give the impression that he provides professional) are growing

6. What kind of access I would have to technology? (Grade Book software, e-mail, united-streaming, etc.)

7. What are the tasks required by the position? (Lunch, corridors, etc.)

8. What kind of extracurricular activities can I participatewith?

9. How long the planning of teachers? (Do not ask this question ... is the first time planning is the most important problem. It 'important that the planning time allocated to different schools and different amounts of time to plan a teacher, you must make sure that you know, first to reject any work of provision)

10. What is the school policy concerning l '?

Even asking questions during the interview, you will create the atmosphere of trustabout you. But more importantly, you can see if the school is really a good match for you.
