@@shanetteelliott8225 thank you ! I did not accept the job. Because the pay was so low to the cost of living in that area, unfortunately. But I'm still interviewing in Texas and Nevada utilizing her tools.
I am thrilled to share that using your techniques, I aced my interview with the principal and was promptly offered a teaching position at their school within an hour.
Just watching this video several times and saying the words “I’m going to set the expectations from the start.” The person interviewing me looked impressed, this video helped me get a job offer !! Ty so much

Be confident in your abilities and share examples of how you can create a positive learning environment. Good luck! ~Yiana Team Member at Kathleen Jasper LLC
Thank you! 9 years of experience but foggy because I've spent most of my teaching career in special education. I forgot that differentiation is just something that I do without thinking about it.
You're welcome! It's amazing how skills become second nature over time. Your experience in special education surely brings a unique perspective to differentiation. Keep up the great work! ~Yiana Team Member at Kathleen Jasper LLC

This helps me, whatever random way they ask me questions, I can categorize them and be prepared. I’m thinking… be ready with a general response and personal specifics.
That sounds like a great strategy! Having a general response ready, along with personal specifics, shows your thorough preparation and can help you navigate any kind of questioning with confidence. Keep up the good work! ~Yiana Team Member at Kathleen Jasper LLC
I just came from a Teacher job fair and wish I had watched this before going. I made all the mistakes you mention. I've been working as an interim teacher for 8 years and I was confused about their questions, I kept thinking to myself, "Why would they ask me something everyone who works in schools know". Now I know, they wanted to see if I knew. Instead of saying I differentiate instruction. I teach to the middle and then differentiate the students on the other sides of the middle.
I am echoing the sentiments of some of your other veiwers! First let me say Thank you so much!!! I watched your video a few times and was able to personalize your recommendations, and I was offered my first elementary teaching job on the spot! Again thank you so much!!!
I watched your video four times and took your points to heart. I had two interviews today. I was offered the teaching job half way through the first interview. The interview team were "incredibly impressed" with my answers. I went from anxious to fairly confident from your advice. Thank you!

I watched your videos to help me get through the Writing Praxis before my junior year of college, and now I am watching this to help me prepare for interviewing for my first teaching position! Your videos are always super helpful :)
Thank you for your insights, Kathleen! I was recently hired as a high school business and marketing instructor as an industry transplant. Your videos helped me translate my training and professional mentoring experience to a classroom setting. Being able to intelligenetly speak on these talking points was immensely helpful, and this helped with my confidence in the interview. I read your book, Teach: A Survival Guide for New Educators, after accepting the position. I'm extremely excited to tackle my first year as an educator with your tools and techniques in mind.
That is amazing! I’m thrilled you found the voices and resources helpful. Thank you so much for reading my book. And thanks for taking the time to comment and let me know how things are going 😊
Hi there. You're welcome! That's fantastic to hear. Good luck with your interviews this week. You've got this. ~Kathy Customer Support at Kathleen Jasper LLC
Another thing that is important is that content is just as important as strategies. Often good strategies are used with mediocre or boring material. I stress my interesting content when I interview. It is important to have a website with some materials to email before your interview. And yes, procedures and routines are important. Often especially for ELA, the standards are broad so you can teach what you want. Standards unfortunately have really narrowed the curriculum. I think there are differentiation techniques which work for all students, especially showing sample assignments, bullet pointed previews and a view preview as well as practice tests.
Thanks so much for this video! You are the best coach and tutor I have ever heard from. Kindly help me answer these questions: (1)From your point of view, how important is technology in education? What technology-related skills would you intergrate in your classroom? Thanks so much 🙏 ( 2)Describe the classroom condition that best facilitate student learning and strategies you would use to assure maximum learning for all students.
Thank you. Here are my responses: 1. Tech is very important but no amount of tech is as important as an effective teacher. However, tech used to engage learners is very helpful. All tech should be used according to the academic standards and protocols set out by the district. 2. The main thing I would focus on for this is practiced procedures and routines. Learning can only take place when students understand the expectations and practice how to execute on those expectations. This is the number one way to maximize success for all students. For more information on that, check out my how to start the school year off with success video on this channel. Good luck!
I have learnt that we can use chat GPT as a tool in learning to get information and also lesson planning. I can also manage my students by allowing them use their phones for a short while in exchange for them giving me full attention during my time, though subject for approval by the principal. I have learnt a lot.Thanks so much
I have an interview on Monday and Wednesday. I am definitely using my own words to restate this. I have been reading up on how I can answer and you are right, I do not want to say this in the interview and not use it. Thank you for posting. I feel more confident going in.

these are great tips. I have an interview next week. I know this will set me up for success. Question: Would you see a candidate with a notebook to jot points down as a weakness or frowned upon? And to map some points out to talk with the hiring team?
I think having a note book available can be a good thing. Just don’t obsessively jot every word down. You want to be present. But it sure helps to jot down points if you think in they are important. Good luck!
Kathleen, great as always, thank you very much for your explicit and comprehensive videos.I have watched a few of them and had 2 interviews this spring and unfortunately didn't get it. But I will implement your suggestions especially terminology and try again, again until I get it. I asked for a feedback after the interview but didn't get it. Anyway, your videos give me inspiration, and i am grateful for that:)
We're delighted to learn that our videos are proving valuable to you. Your enthusiasm and perseverance are truly commendable, as they play a pivotal role in realizing your aspirations.

I haven't interviewed in a decade and hoping I won't have to for a while u less I choose to transition into reading intervention one day. Honestly my "in" for the job was serving in substitute and then classified positions in the school for a year or two. The staff on the interview panel already knew me and worked with me.
Building relationships and familiarity can be powerful assets when seeking new opportunities. If you ever decide to pursue a transition into reading intervention, your established connections and experience could serve as valuable stepping stones. ~Yiana Team Member at Kathleen Jasper LLC
Great talking points, KJ! Off-topic question: what is the color of your wall and cabinets in the background? It is sublime. Reminds me of Benjamin Moore Hale Navy.
Best of luck on your teaching interview tomorrow! Remember to stay confident and showcase your passion for teaching. You've got this! ~Yiana Team Member at Kathleen Jasper LLC
I studied this video and some others.. can you believe that they only asked me 5 questions and then they were scoring the answers. It was a 5 minute interview. They didn’t want to know anything about me. I did mention these 4 things in my answers but one question was an odd ball and hard to answer for a new teacher.. now I just wait and see 😬
I just had this happen, poorly stated questions too. I’m planning general answers and ready with specific examples individual to me. I’ve had three interviews in my career and was hired each time, but the interviews had follow up questions and discussions. Good luck to you!!!!!
thank you. i finished my interview. everything you mentioned was asked except one question through me for a loop - the assistant principal asked "Do you know what the 5 e's are?"
Congratulations on completing your interview! It's great to hear that you were well-prepared for most of the questions. Regarding the question about the 5 E's, it seems like a reference to a common framework used in science education, particularly for inquiry-based learning. The 5 E's typically stand for: Engage: This involves piquing students' interest and activating their prior knowledge about a topic. Explore: Students actively explore the concept or phenomenon through hands-on activities, experiments, or investigations. Explain: Students are encouraged to explain their understanding of the concept based on their exploration and observations. Elaborate: This stage allows students to deepen their understanding by applying concepts to new situations, extending their knowledge, and making connections. Evaluate: Assessment of students' understanding and abilities to apply what they have learned. This could be in the form of quizzes, projects, discussions, etc. This framework is widely used in science education but can also be adapted to other subject areas and instructional contexts. ~Yiana Team Member at Kathleen Jasper LLC
Doesn't actually work. There's still multiple applicants for posted jobs, so you still do need to prove that you're the most qualified and the best fit.
@@bluesky5384 that simply isn't true. There are endless schools all over America that start the year without teachers in the classrooms and have to go with unqualified full-time subs until someone bothers to show up to apply. That's one of the reasons our schools are in such horrendous shape right now, the inability to attract not only enough candidates but candidates of any quality.
Thank You, I am applying for co teacher/special education. I just passed the PPR . Thank You for the tips. It will be nice to do a video for interviews for special education co teachers because they collaborate with the Gen Ed teachers and do not have Lesson Plans.
Thank you for sharing that with us. Congratulations on passing the PPR and best of luck with your application. We'll take note of your suggestion and we appreciate the idea. 😊 ~Kathy Customer Support at Kathleen Jasper LLC

My situation is very unique, I am landed immigrant in Canada and certified teacher with good standing on the basis of my education and teaching experience back home but never got job in school, rather got job in administrative capacity for long 9 years , now my passion for teaching is telling me to try again in school, how to go for it now
Your situation is indeed unique, but it's great to hear that your passion for teaching is leading you to explore opportunities in schools once again. To make a successful transition from an administrative role to a teaching position, consider the following steps: Update Your Skills and Knowledge: Take some time to refresh your teaching skills and knowledge about the Canadian education system. Attend workshops, seminars, or online courses that focus on teaching methodologies, curriculum updates, and classroom management strategies. Obtain Necessary Certifications: Research the specific requirements for becoming a certified teacher in Canada. You might need to obtain additional certifications or qualifications to meet the standards set by the provincial education authorities. Network with Educators: Reach out to teachers, principals, and other educators in your area. Attend local educational events and join professional teaching associations to connect with people in the education field. Update Your Resume and Cover Letter: Tailor your resume and cover letter to emphasize your teaching skills and experiences, both from your home country and your administrative role. Highlight transferable skills, such as leadership, communication, and organizational abilities. Prepare for Interviews: Anticipate questions that may arise during interviews and practice your responses. Emphasize your passion for teaching, your dedication to students' growth, and your ability to adapt to new environments. Remember, transitioning from an administrative role to a teaching position may require patience and determination. Stay proactive, keep improving your skills, and demonstrate your genuine passion for teaching to increase your chances of successfully securing a teaching job in Canada. Good luck! ~Yiana Team Member at Kathleen Jasper LLC
@@KathleenJasperEdD Thank you so much Yiana for your detailed response to my question and concern. I will be working on these lines and will keep you posted . I have already taken Teachers Certification in Canada and done two additional qualifications but still was not sure how to tailor my resume but got a very specific answer how to do that by mentioning transferable skills .Thank you so much for your time.Kathleen Jasper is a real influencer!! This was the first video I saw and immediately subscribed to her channel as I know this will take me to my goal !! Regards Bhalinder
I would lean into the fact that you’re bilingual. That is a huge asset. Also, I would do research on ESL/ESOL instruction, specifically in reading. Every principal wants to help their ELLs pass their state tests. 😊
That's a sign that you care about the job, which is a good thing. Use that energy to fuel your preparation and present the best version of yourself during the interview. Good luck! You've got this! 😊 ~Yiana Team Member at Kathleen Jasper LLC
It is important to emphasize your commitment to teamwork and achieving the best outcomes for students. You can respond by highlighting the following points: 1. Emphasize your willingness to work as part of a team: Show that you value the input and expertise of others and believe in the power of collective brainstorming and planning. 2. Highlight your communication skills: Show your willingness to actively listen to others, provide constructive feedback, and engage in open and respectful discussions during planning meetings. 3. Showcase your flexibility and adaptability: Show your willingness to adapt your instructional strategies and plans based on the input and insights of your fellow teachers 4. Discuss your commitment to student success: Explain how you believe that collaboration with other teachers can lead to more comprehensive and effective instructional plans, resulting in improved student engagement, learning, and achievement. Remember, it is important to provide specific examples from your past experiences or express your willingness to actively participate in collaborative planning activities to further strengthen your response. ~Yiana Team Member at Kathleen Jasper LLC
Can you do a video to help encourage applicants who have been turned down numerous times. It's been very discouraging thinking you nailed an interview and then getting that email or phone call telling you that you were not selected.
How do we get the interview! I’ve been subbing on campus and did my in class observation hours as well. When I completed the hours I gifted the principals a succulent with a hand written note as a way for them to remember me during this time of year. I sent a follow up reminder email as my principal asked me to and let them know my application was in the system so it may be accessible to their convenience. Idk what else would help me get an interview.
They probably won’t start interviewing until the end of the year. The principal is probably slammed with end-of-the-year evaluations, testing, and other stuff. I would reach back out as soon as summer starts. That’s when hiring amps up. Remember, you’re thinking about your interview all the time. The principal is not. He or she has a million other things happening. Don’t take it personally. Just reach out at the end of the year.
@@KathleenJasperEdD Thank you for the reply! Any advice for when I am around subbing and run into them? Or is what I’ve already taken initiative in doing enough?
Thank you for this video . How do you show classroom management during the demo lesson in the interview? Especially a student who doesn't listen and follow procedures and routines. I have an interview tomorrow and I am preparing a lesson incase they want me to teach a class. I have differentiated my worksheets to meet the needs of all my learners(3 different worksheets for the same lesson) I'm just abit worried about classroom management during an interview lesson. I will be happy for any tips. Thank you!!

It's completely normal to feel nervous before an interview, especially for a role as important as a kindergarten teacher. Remember to breathe, prepare as best as you can, and trust in your abilities. You've got this! ~Yiana Team Member at Kathleen Jasper LLC
How would you handle a situation if you're a new teacher asked to take a position with FIVE preps and there are no textbooks, curriculum material, pacing guide, or curriculum map for any of your classes?
That is a lot. 5 preps? That is setting you up for a tough year. Knowing what I know now, I would decline. I’m surprised an ed leader (principal) would do that to a new teacher. If you have other offers, I would take something else. This feels like a lot. Hope that helps. Good luck .
Yes, it's generally acceptable to bring notes to an interview. They can help you remember key points and ensure you cover important topics. However, be mindful not to rely too heavily on them, as maintaining eye contact and engaging with the interviewer is also important. ~Yiana Team Member at Kathleen Jasper LLC
Addressing a negative evaluation from your last Annual Performance (AP) review during your first year on a provisional license can be challenging but important for your professional growth. Here's a general approach to crafting your response: Acknowledge the Feedback: Start by acknowledging that you received feedback that wasn't as positive as you had hoped. Express Willingness to Improve: Emphasize your willingness to learn from the feedback and improve your performance. Describe Action Steps: Briefly outline the specific actions you took to address the issues raised in the evaluation. Reflect on Progress: Discuss how these actions led to improvements over time. Mention any accomplishments, milestones, or positive changes that resulted from your efforts. Highlight Learning: Mention the key lessons you learned from this experience and how it shaped your approach to your work and professional development. Commitment to Growth: Conclude by reiterating your commitment to ongoing growth and improvement. Emphasize that you're dedicated to using feedback to enhance your performance moving forward. Remember to maintain a positive and constructive tone, demonstrating your adaptability and ability to turn challenges into opportunities for improvement. ~Yiana Team Member at Kathleen Jasper LLC

Here are a few potential reasons for such a decision: Budget Constraints: Schools often have limited budgets, and hiring a full-time teacher with a contract can come with higher costs due to benefits and other considerations. Offering a permanent substitute position might be a way to save on these expenses. Flexibility: Permanent substitute positions might offer the school more flexibility. Substitutes can cover various classes and grade levels as needed, which can be beneficial when dealing with scheduling challenges or unexpected absences. Trial Period: Schools might choose to hire someone as a permanent substitute to assess their teaching abilities and fit within the school environment before committing to a full teacher contract. Supply of Teachers: Depending on the area and subject, it might be challenging to find qualified teachers to fill open positions. In such cases, a school might opt to offer a permanent substitute position as a way to address staffing needs. Teacher Shortages: In regions facing teacher shortages, schools might need to use creative solutions to ensure classrooms are adequately staffed. Offering a permanent substitute position could be a temporary measure to address this issue. Unique Circumstances: There might be unique circumstances within the school, such as a specific program or curriculum that requires a specialized skill set. A permanent substitute might be better suited to fulfill those needs. It's important to note that the specific reasons can vary widely depending on the school, its policies, the education system of the region, and the context. ~Yiana Team Member at Kathleen Jasper LLC

Unfortunately the fourth point will be the obstacle for me to succeed in any interview in USA. I'm not used with this kind of strategy when I was French teacher in North Africa. I'm talking about Data
Hi there. I understand your concern regarding data-driven strategies. It can feel overwhelming when you're not accustomed to this approach, especially when coming from a different educational system. However, data is often used in the U.S. to help guide instruction and improve student outcomes. You might want to explore professional development opportunities that focus on data analysis in education. Gaining familiarity with how data is used to track progress and inform teaching strategies could help you overcome this obstacle and feel more confident in your interviews. ~Kathy Customer Support at Kathleen Jasper LLC

That sounds like a great strategy! Having a general response ready, along with personal specifics, shows your thorough preparation and can help you navigate any kind of questioning with confidence. Keep up the good work!

I just came from a Teacher job fair and wish I had watched this before going. I made all the mistakes you mention. I've been working as an interim teacher for 8 years and I was confused about their questions, I kept thinking to myself, "Why would they ask me something everyone who works in schools know". Now I know, they wanted to see if I knew. Instead of saying I differentiate instruction. I teach to the middle and then differentiate the students on the other sides of the middle.
That’s ok. You’ll be able to get another chance. There’s a teacher shortage. You’ll be able to interview again. Glad you’re here.
I am echoing the sentiments of some of your other veiwers! First let me say Thank you so much!!! I watched your video a few times and was able to personalize your recommendations, and I was offered my first elementary teaching job on the spot! Again thank you so much!!!
Congrats on getting the job. Well done!

I’m so happy you’re finding the resources helpful. Thanks for taking the time to comment 😊
Thank you for your insights, Kathleen! I was recently hired as a high school business and marketing instructor as an industry transplant. Your videos helped me translate my training and professional mentoring experience to a classroom setting. Being able to intelligenetly speak on these talking points was immensely helpful, and this helped with my confidence in the interview.
I read your book, Teach: A Survival Guide for New Educators, after accepting the position. I'm extremely excited to tackle my first year as an educator with your tools and techniques in mind.

Another thing that is important is that content is just as important as strategies. Often good strategies are used with mediocre or boring material. I stress my interesting content when I interview. It is important to have a website with some materials to email before your interview. And yes, procedures and routines are important. Often especially for ELA, the standards are broad so you can teach what you want. Standards unfortunately have really narrowed the curriculum. I think there are differentiation techniques which work for all students, especially showing sample assignments, bullet pointed previews and a view preview as well as practice tests.
Thanks so much for this video! You are the best coach and tutor I have ever heard from. Kindly help me answer these questions:
(1)From your point of view, how important is technology in education? What technology-related skills would you intergrate in your classroom?
Thanks so much 🙏
( 2)Describe the classroom condition that best facilitate student learning and strategies you would use to assure maximum learning for all students.
Thank you. Here are my responses:
1. Tech is very important but no amount of tech is as important as an effective teacher. However, tech used to engage learners is very helpful. All tech should be used according to the academic standards and protocols set out by the district.
2. The main thing I would focus on for this is practiced procedures and routines. Learning can only take place when students understand the expectations and practice how to execute on those expectations. This is the number one way to maximize success for all students.
For more information on that, check out my how to start the school year off with success video on this channel.
Good luck!
Thanks so much for this response! They have helped me a great deal. Let me watch the video you suggested. Thanks again
I have learnt that we can use chat GPT as a tool in learning to get information and also lesson planning. I can also manage my students by allowing them use their phones for a short while in exchange for them giving me full attention during my time, though subject for approval by the principal. I have learnt a lot.Thanks so much

these are great tips. I have an interview next week. I know this will set me up for success. Question: Would you see a candidate with a notebook to jot points down as a weakness or frowned upon? And to map some points out to talk with the hiring team?
I think having a note book available can be a good thing. Just don’t obsessively jot every word down. You want to be present. But it sure helps to jot down points if you think in they are important. Good luck!

I haven't interviewed in a decade and hoping I won't have to for a while u less I choose to transition into reading intervention one day.
Honestly my "in" for the job was serving in substitute and then classified positions in the school for a year or two. The staff on the interview panel already knew me and worked with me.
Building relationships and familiarity can be powerful assets when seeking new opportunities. If you ever decide to pursue a transition into reading intervention, your established connections and experience could serve as valuable stepping stones.

I just had this happen, poorly stated questions too. I’m planning general answers and ready with specific examples individual to me.
I’ve had three interviews in my career and was hired each time, but the interviews had follow up questions and discussions. Good luck to you!!!!!
found this information just in time for my interview Monday. 😊
Good luck!
thank you. i finished my interview. everything you mentioned was asked except one question through me for a loop - the assistant principal asked "Do you know what the 5 e's are?"
Congratulations on completing your interview! It's great to hear that you were well-prepared for most of the questions.
Regarding the question about the 5 E's, it seems like a reference to a common framework used in science education, particularly for inquiry-based learning. The 5 E's typically stand for:
Engage: This involves piquing students' interest and activating their prior knowledge about a topic.
Explore: Students actively explore the concept or phenomenon through hands-on activities, experiments, or investigations.
Explain: Students are encouraged to explain their understanding of the concept based on their exploration and observations.
Elaborate: This stage allows students to deepen their understanding by applying concepts to new situations, extending their knowledge, and making connections.
Evaluate: Assessment of students' understanding and abilities to apply what they have learned. This could be in the form of quizzes, projects, discussions, etc.
This framework is widely used in science education but can also be adapted to other subject areas and instructional contexts.

Say this - there is a massive shortage of people willing to accept the low pay for the high stress. When do I start.
Trust me it doesn’t work.
Doesn't actually work. There's still multiple applicants for posted jobs, so you still do need to prove that you're the most qualified and the best fit.
@@bluesky5384 that simply isn't true. There are endless schools all over America that start the year without teachers in the classrooms and have to go with unqualified full-time subs until someone bothers to show up to apply. That's one of the reasons our schools are in such horrendous shape right now, the inability to attract not only enough candidates but candidates of any quality.
@@bluesky5384 no you don't. There is a massive teacher shortage across the entire country. That's why teacher quality is so low.
It’s better that retail

My situation is very unique, I am landed immigrant in Canada and certified teacher with good standing on the basis of my education and teaching experience back home but never got job in school, rather got job in administrative capacity for long 9 years , now my passion for teaching is telling me to try again in school, how to go for it now
Your situation is indeed unique, but it's great to hear that your passion for teaching is leading you to explore opportunities in schools once again. To make a successful transition from an administrative role to a teaching position, consider the following steps:
Update Your Skills and Knowledge: Take some time to refresh your teaching skills and knowledge about the Canadian education system. Attend workshops, seminars, or online courses that focus on teaching methodologies, curriculum updates, and classroom management strategies.
Obtain Necessary Certifications: Research the specific requirements for becoming a certified teacher in Canada. You might need to obtain additional certifications or qualifications to meet the standards set by the provincial education authorities.
Network with Educators: Reach out to teachers, principals, and other educators in your area. Attend local educational events and join professional teaching associations to connect with people in the education field.
Update Your Resume and Cover Letter: Tailor your resume and cover letter to emphasize your teaching skills and experiences, both from your home country and your administrative role. Highlight transferable skills, such as leadership, communication, and organizational abilities.
Prepare for Interviews: Anticipate questions that may arise during interviews and practice your responses. Emphasize your passion for teaching, your dedication to students' growth, and your ability to adapt to new environments.
Remember, transitioning from an administrative role to a teaching position may require patience and determination. Stay proactive, keep improving your skills, and demonstrate your genuine passion for teaching to increase your chances of successfully securing a teaching job in Canada. Good luck!

How can I answer when the principal asks how I will collaborate with other teachers doing instructional planning?
It is important to emphasize your commitment to teamwork and achieving the best outcomes for students. You can respond by highlighting the following points:
1. Emphasize your willingness to work as part of a team: Show that you value the input and expertise of others and believe in the power of collective brainstorming and planning.
2. Highlight your communication skills: Show your willingness to actively listen to others, provide constructive feedback, and engage in open and respectful discussions during planning meetings.
3. Showcase your flexibility and adaptability: Show your willingness to adapt your instructional strategies and plans based on the input and insights of your fellow teachers
4. Discuss your commitment to student success: Explain how you believe that collaboration with other teachers can lead to more comprehensive and effective instructional plans, resulting in improved student engagement, learning, and achievement.
Remember, it is important to provide specific examples from your past experiences or express your willingness to actively participate in collaborative planning activities to further strengthen your response.

How do we get the interview! I’ve been subbing on campus and did my in class observation hours as well. When I completed the hours I gifted the principals a succulent with a hand written note as a way for them to remember me during this time of year. I sent a follow up reminder email as my principal asked me to and let them know my application was in the system so it may be accessible to their convenience. Idk what else would help me get an interview.
They probably won’t start interviewing until the end of the year. The principal is probably slammed with end-of-the-year evaluations, testing, and other stuff. I would reach back out as soon as summer starts. That’s when hiring amps up. Remember, you’re thinking about your interview all the time. The principal is not. He or she has a million other things happening. Don’t take it personally. Just reach out at the end of the year.
@@KathleenJasperEdD Thank you for the reply! Any advice for when I am around subbing and run into them? Or is what I’ve already taken initiative in doing enough?

Hope it went well today!
How would you handle a situation if you're a new teacher asked to take a position with FIVE preps and there are no textbooks, curriculum material, pacing guide, or curriculum map for any of your classes?
That is a lot. 5 preps? That is setting you up for a tough year. Knowing what I know now, I would decline. I’m surprised an ed leader (principal) would do that to a new teacher. If you have other offers, I would take something else. This feels like a lot. Hope that helps. Good luck .
I am just curious, Is it okay to bring notes during the interview?
Yes, it's generally acceptable to bring notes to an interview. They can help you remember key points and ensure you cover important topics. However, be mindful not to rely too heavily on them, as maintaining eye contact and engaging with the interviewer is also important.

How can I answer if my last AP did a bad evaluation in my 1st year in my provisional license.
Addressing a negative evaluation from your last Annual Performance (AP) review during your first year on a provisional license can be challenging but important for your professional growth. Here's a general approach to crafting your response:
Acknowledge the Feedback: Start by acknowledging that you received feedback that wasn't as positive as you had hoped.
Express Willingness to Improve: Emphasize your willingness to learn from the feedback and improve your performance.
Describe Action Steps: Briefly outline the specific actions you took to address the issues raised in the evaluation.
Reflect on Progress: Discuss how these actions led to improvements over time. Mention any accomplishments, milestones, or positive changes that resulted from your efforts.
Highlight Learning: Mention the key lessons you learned from this experience and how it shaped your approach to your work and professional development.
Commitment to Growth: Conclude by reiterating your commitment to ongoing growth and improvement. Emphasize that you're dedicated to using feedback to enhance your performance moving forward.
Remember to maintain a positive and constructive tone, demonstrating your adaptability and ability to turn challenges into opportunities for improvement.

Will it be okay to go into an interview without a teaching portfolio?
Yes! Most principals don’t even look at them. Save your time!
So I had 4 interviews and did not get anything. Can you answer why a print would offer a permanent sub position instead of a teacher contract?
Here are a few potential reasons for such a decision:
Budget Constraints: Schools often have limited budgets, and hiring a full-time teacher with a contract can come with higher costs due to benefits and other considerations. Offering a permanent substitute position might be a way to save on these expenses.
Flexibility: Permanent substitute positions might offer the school more flexibility. Substitutes can cover various classes and grade levels as needed, which can be beneficial when dealing with scheduling challenges or unexpected absences.
Trial Period: Schools might choose to hire someone as a permanent substitute to assess their teaching abilities and fit within the school environment before committing to a full teacher contract.
Supply of Teachers: Depending on the area and subject, it might be challenging to find qualified teachers to fill open positions. In such cases, a school might opt to offer a permanent substitute position as a way to address staffing needs.
Teacher Shortages: In regions facing teacher shortages, schools might need to use creative solutions to ensure classrooms are adequately staffed. Offering a permanent substitute position could be a temporary measure to address this issue.
Unique Circumstances: There might be unique circumstances within the school, such as a specific program or curriculum that requires a specialized skill set. A permanent substitute might be better suited to fulfill those needs.
It's important to note that the specific reasons can vary widely depending on the school, its policies, the education system of the region, and the context.

Help me here upon arriving at our school you find teachers separated or in groups, how are going to handle the situation?
We recommend you approach the situation with an open and friendly demeanor. You can start by introducing myself and engaging in conversation with both individual teachers and groups to understand the dynamics and build positive relationships.

Unfortunately the fourth point will be the obstacle for me to succeed in any interview in USA. I'm not used with this kind of strategy when I was French teacher in North Africa. I'm talking about Data
Hi there. I understand your concern regarding data-driven strategies. It can feel overwhelming when you're not accustomed to this approach, especially when coming from a different educational system. However, data is often used in the U.S. to help guide instruction and improve student outcomes. You might want to explore professional development opportunities that focus on data analysis in education. Gaining familiarity with how data is used to track progress and inform teaching strategies could help you overcome this obstacle and feel more confident in your interviews.
