    Hi Klayton. I have 2 questions for you.
    Q 1: "NETWORK TEST"
    Did Qkids provide there own NETWORK TEST PLATFORM / SERBICE PROVIDER to check your computer's network speed or did you do your network test on one of your own network service providers?
    Q 2: How did you go about to send the interviewer of Qkids your internet speed result via email, wechat or what?
    Thank you for sharing this video. I'm looking forward to hear from you with the answers to my questions. Regards. Maretha

    • @klaytonbook
      @klaytonbook  5 ปีที่แล้ว

      Yes, they provide a network test in the app. Then you can just screenshot or take a picture with your phone and send it to them in a message on the app.

    • @klaytonbook

  • @Ray24393
    @Ray24393 6 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    Great video. But how do you know how to do all this during the interview? I mean how did you already know how to check if there’s issues with the students audio or where to click for everything? Do you get to practice beforehand?

    • @klaytonbook
      @klaytonbook  6 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      After you submit your application, if everything looks good, they will send you a link to download the Qkids app (for Mac or PC) along with a username and password. Inside the app, there are several lessons for you to go through to get familiar with the classroom. There are video demonstrations for almost everything. Then, they give you an empty classroom where you can try all the stuff out. The videos they give you are only available in the Qkids app. They are made by Qkids staff and they cover everything you will need to demonstrate during the interview.

    I just applied for an ESL position that came through FB jobs postings for Qkids. I am not savvy as to creating an introductory demo of myself to present. I am sure that could be a deal breaker, so I need to get some help getting that done. How did you create yours? Also, while I have some early learning experience from years ago in a couple of daycare centers, I do not hold a certificate of any kind specifically to teach ESL. Would you be able to recommend a program? I am willing to go through the training in order to get certified because I believe in this work and would enjoy it very much.

    • @klaytonbook
      @klaytonbook  6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Brenda, those are great questions! I have a whole video about the requirements to be a Qkids teacher! Your resume can be a very rudimentary Microsoft Word document. That is what I did. There is a screenshot of it in the video. There is also a link to an ESL certificate class that I recommend.

      +Courtney Keller, If you go into the “classroom” before class starts, the timer will count down minutes and seconds until class starts. After class starts, the timer counts how long your lesson takes. I don’t think time matters in your demos. In a real class, you focus on the material for 28 minutes, and then the leaderboard and celebration for the last 2 minutes.
