British Institutes Interview Questions

mi ero candidata come insegnante, ma mi viene offerto un posto da receptionist, e mi viene detto solo a colloquio già iniziato. Poco precisi per quanto riguarda informazioni come orari e stipendi.

Meeting coordinator for a short first interview about past experiences, institute rules, salary,..., Later a meeting with the head teacher about teaching techniques and short demonstration, in which i taught a short grammar and a short reading section

Colloquio in sede con titolari della scuola, cordialità e professionalità. Non si è parlato di rimborso spese, forma contrattuale e retribuzione. Comunicazione pre e post colloquio tramite email, tempi di risposta molto veloci. Durante il colloquio vengono affrontate tematiche quali percorso universitario, esperienze lavorative pregresse, obbiettivi futuri senza domande illecite (domande personali che non hanno nulla a che vedere con la posizione di lavoro offerta)

Skype Interview. It went very well, not too formal but still very professional. After several skype interviews with overseas countries this was the first one where I felt the interviewer seemed genuine and to be completely honest in answering any questions I had. Thankfully my intuition was correct as there were no nasty surprises waiting for me when I arrived. Clear description of the job role and any extra responsibilities that may be asked of you. I was also provided the opportunity to speak to a current teacher about the job and the location for a further insight into the company which also went very well. It was reassuring to hear from another teacher who had moved there from England, and one who had stayed there for several years. Excellent post-interview follow up and help to get settled into the country, including assistance in finding a place to live for the duration of the contract which has not disappointed.

Had two Skype interviews as I resided in Cape Town, South Africa, at the time of the interviews. My first interview was with the Director of Studies and then with the Principal of the school

Interview with dos. Some personal questions. Questions about teaching methods and experience. Talked about teaching adults and children. Not speaking in Italian. Classroom behaviour

During the interview I was asked about my experience in teaching, though the questions were not many since I had quite a lot of experience, the school was just opening, and I had a CELTA qualification, which is almost a guarantee to land a Job in a language school. The interview was going well until suddenly I was asked to spontaneously teach the interviewer "something". It wasn't easy to suddenly come up with something but thankfully my experience got me through the 'test' quite well. I think it's quite a good thing to do for this kind of job as it can show flexibility, which is widely needed in this field.
