I don't know if anyone else has had trouble finding out what you need to do if you are planning on teaching in another state. This site is the test that Utah uses, but it also lists the requirements for other states' tests and has links to their licensing websites.

lds asking questions gospel questions teaching

shared by rickwesttest2 on 05 Nov 09 - Cached

“Some questions invite inspiration. Great teachers ask those. That may take just a small change of words, an inflection of the voice. Here is a question that might not invite inspiration: ‘How is a true prophet recognized?’ That question invites an answer which is a list, drawn from memory, of the scriptures and the words of living prophets. … “But we could ask the question this way, with just a small difference: ‘When have you felt you were in the presence of a prophet?’ That will invite individuals to search their memories for feelings. After asking, we might wait for a moment before calling on someone to respond. Even those who do not speak will be thinking of spiritual experiences. That will invite the Holy Ghost.”1

“The major role of a teacher is to prepare the way so that the [students] will have a spiritual experience with the Lord. … All true gospel teaching is done by the Holy Ghost. … We must be careful not to get in the way. … The most important thing a teacher can do is to help the student feel the Spirit of the Lord.”

1. Yes/No questions. (Will prayer help us develop faith?) 2. Questions that require only one- or two-word answers. (Which principle of the gospel is faith?) 3. Questions with obvious answers. (Is faith in Jesus Christ an important principle of the gospel?) 4. Clichéd questions. (How can we use faith in our daily lives?) 5. Controversial questions. (Have you ever lived contrary to the prophet’s counsel and been blessed in your actions?)
