Prepping for a Phone Interview
PHONE INTERVIEW PREP WORKSHEET
1. Tell me about a time when you encountered a difficult student and how you handled it. This can be an online student if you have taught online before, a face-to-face student if you have not, or someone in any sort of online communication (in the event you are just starting out your teaching career).
2. Tell me about a time you demonstrated empathy to a student (online, offline, or another person to whom you had a mentoring-type role).
3. Tell me about a time you had to reach out and engage your students (or others in any group environment) in order to teach them a particularly difficult or complex topic.
4. Tell me about a time when your knowledge of FERPA was important to creating an ethical teaching atmosphere? If you have yet to teach, talk about how you will be mindful of FERPA in your online classroom.
