Ace the Interview: questions to ask | Organized Chaos - 0 views

  • I think it is commonly understood that it's important to do your research on the district/school/job for which you're applying before you go into the interview at all. The question time at the end is where your preparation, or lack thereof, can become most apparent! You don't want to ask a question that can easily be answered through an internet search.

      Very important.
  • This is a great opportunity to showcase your knowledge about different teaching methodologies (like Orff, Kodaly, MLT etc) even if the interviewers don't know what you're asking!
    • cheyroseb
       
      Certainly helps with curriculum planning. Are you allowed to bring a notepad in the interview room to write down questions/answers?
  • make sure to ask about class length, frequency, and whether it is year-long or only part of the year!

      Good to know!

  • I like this question better than "what will my schedule be like?" because it suggests that you're wanting to know how much time you'll have with each class to cover everything, rather than wondering what your workload will be like.
    • cheyroseb
       
      Such a good way to phrase this!
  • What curricular / professional development resources and equipment / space can I expect to have available to me in this position?
    • cheyroseb
       
      Things I wish I knew going into this job-- I would have stayed at the underpaying school.
  • What are the extracurricular/ performance expectations?
    • cheyroseb
       
      It would also help to know what your students are capable of bringing to the table. My students now can't stay after school, so everything is during prep time.

    Great questions to ask in an interview for a music teacher position.

    Article about adverse childhood experiences in Iowa. Describes how many students deal with these traumas and how we as educators can learn about how their brains are affected so when we are teaching them we are aware of the state they are in. You can't teach a student until they feel safe in your classroom.
