I have been asked this question in regards to an interview for teaching nursing students.

What is important for the students to learn and why.\n\nMost schools (districts, etc.) have a published philosophy that teachers are expected to abide by. Your philosophy may not be exactly the same, but if it's too divergent, it may be hard to work there. The more you agree with the school's philosophy, the easier it will be to do things their way.

In teaching its ow u fare in the practice teaching or observation class thats important and not the personal interview.So insist on taking a class to the students under the observation of the interviewer(s).\nBe thorough with ur subject, lesson and the topic that u r going to discuss. Make the class more interactive so that a favorable impression will be created in the mind of the students.\nBe prepared to answer the questions like\nWhy do you choose teaching as ur profession?\nWhat is ur professional ambition?\nWhat is ur personal ambition in ur profession?\nWhat makes u think u r the best teacher?

Ask a thoughtful question about what he/she is trying to teach.  It will make his/her day!

If you don't know, then you are too young.  Someone needs to have a discussion with your health teacher.  If this topic is going to be discussed, all aspects of it should be covered.

Ask her what she believes the students will achieve in her class - attainment targets - learning outcomes.\n\nWhat strategies is she using to draw the students interest and engage them whilst learning?\n\nHow does this class fit in to the rest of the curriculum and the students overall education?\n\nthat kind of thing - more specific and targetted really drawing out her thinking behind the calls and how it is going to be taught for best effect.

I think it sounds very interesting.  Have you thought about how you will test this question and then how you will present your findings?  Good luck to you!

Yes, you ask them during the negotiations, or even right up front in the interview.  Work to live, don't live to work: (potential) employers aren't superior, it's ok to ask questions about things that will affect your life in a very big way.

You just answered my question (What is the most important thing you ever learned?) in the way that makes a teacher trainer believe in what she is doing!\nLook, I can't speak for the UK these days. Got qulaified -Got out! I'm on International Eductaion now and it's been my passport to the world...and a vocation I still believe in after...well too many years at the chalk face! The profession doesn't need people to make up numbers, as much as it needs dedicated professionals who seek a reward far richer than gold. I have funny feeling you are just the sort of teacher the kids are so desperately needing (and frankly deserve!)...so hang in there, cos it really is worth the slog. You can contact me for info about a curriculum based on learning to learn for life ...not for tests or govt. figures, if you're interested. jacquelinewebb@isoz.ch.

as a student, they are not looking for any sort of 'professional clinical experience'...unless you were say, a registered nurse (RN), or nurse practitioner turning to medicine. what they are looking for, are activities like volunteering in hospitals to speak to families, counseling, or just interacting with sick children...in fact, these volunteer activities, are much more advantagious than working in a doctor's office..im sorry to say. \n\nbasically, by commiting time formally in a hospital setting as a volunteer, you are showing: commitment, compassion, selflessness, motivation etc. to the interview committee...which is what they want to see

sorry but I'm on the teacher's side. It's her job to see that you get an education. When you're older and filling out an application for a job do you really want alot of misspelled words on it? Education is one of the most important things in life. She's not "a witch" she's just doing her job.

It would be a good idea to read the application and follow the directions they give you. They will TELL you what question they want you to answer in your paragraph. I suggest you mention things that are not covered elsewhere in the application.

You would be surprised how often in real life this question gets ask. You tell your teacher that you appreciate there devotion.

"Hi there" is a good start.\nThen ask if she isn't in that same class, and then ask what she thinks about the instructor. You take it from there.

Good question, It costs the universities 40 or more times more to educate nurses then other majors. Who is going to pay for the teachers? Well it is supplimented by other students when they go to the universities with nursing programs. The screening is because it is easier to teach a smart student than one that is not. Put yourself in the teachers position? Which would you like to teach..

The teaching technique is called student feedback.  The instructor is trying to determine if enough students have understood the material presented well enough to proceed to the next topic.

Her dying last words were, "I must get back to work."\n\nAnd this, from the Red Cross website: \n\n" . . . I can't say that anything romantic or sentimental determined me to be a nurse," she [once] wrote with characteristic candor. "Many young nurses start out with the statement that the sight of suffering impelled them to begin a career of alleviating distress, but please don't say that my career was ever influenced by such sentiment." Her reason for becoming a nurse was simply "I think the nurse's profession is a fine one, and I like it."
