How strict he/she is. If he/she is a drill Sergent, i wouldn't hire him/her. If he/she is too lenient, don't hire him/her. You want someone who will teach your kid, and someone who will make learning fun.

THis is a great site for students.\nhttp://school.discovery.com/homeworkhelp  As you will see it's got a lot of stuff.  Also you need to let your teacher know that you are having difficulty. There maybe others who need him/her to go over something again also.  You would be a hero to them for having the courage to ask for help. \n\nAsk Dr. Math — Dr. Math to the rescue\nThe MathPage — This is a really great site from Manhattan Community College…a must see for people looking for basic math skills\nDan's Math@Home Page — Really great basic math skills here\nBasic College Mathematics — Interactive math problems…very good\nMath Stories.com — Very nice site with word problems for students grades 1-5\nWebMath — I use this for my math homework…it's great!\nMath.com Homework Help — Great help with pre-algebra, algebra and geometry\nAAA Math — If you want to have fun learning math, then try this site\nMath for Morons Like Us — Don't be insulted by the title…it is really cool! \nCool Math.com — Definitely cool!\nMath Homework Helper — Great math help for elementary and middle school students from Fact Monster\nFrank Potter's Science Gems - Mathematics — Don't miss Mr. Potter's sites\nQuickMath — Great for solving equations for algebra and calculus\nThe Math Forum — Wonderful math page with many math links and information\nTopics in Mathematics — Math Archives — You will find just about any kind of math here\nHarcourt Animated Math Glossary — A definitely cool glossary of math terms

First of all thank every child left behind for the test score reason...next...she should practice...take notes during an interview...which questions make her stumble? Which ones does she answer strongly? Is her passion for teaching shining through? Does she show up with anecdotes to share with the interviewer? Sometimes making them grin can make the difference. Is she dressing like she is interviewing for a CEO position? Maybe she should...it is far better to overdress than under dress. Is she looking them in the eye? Is she offering a firm handshake, or just accepting a handshake with a weak squeeze? All of these things matter...you only have a few minutes to make this person believe that you can do the job...also, while still job hunting, she should volunteer at a local school...this will give her a reference...and she can make friends who can give her a heads up for new openings...Good Luck

You should probably go see your tutor at school for help.  You never know what kind of answer someone is going to give you...or if they are just messing with you.

I just put math help into google and found this site\nwww.PathWHelp.org\nwhich says it offers free help 24 hours a day, live teachers!!\nAlso you may contact some maths teachers informally through Yahoo Answers, e.g. I'm a retired maths teacher who still enjoys explaining how to do maths (free), but of course only do it when I have time -- not available "24/7".  My email is\n h_chalker@yahoo.com.au

1) What is your teaching philosophy?\n\n2) How much teaching experience do you have? (Already answered in your application...but they ask anyway) \n\n3) How do you deal with unmotivated students?\n\n4) How do you handle discipline?\n\nDon't be surprised if you are asked several other questions that are already answered in either your application, transcripts, resume, or cover letter. Administrators and department chairs are notoriously lazy and I doubt they read entire applications. They ask you a bunch of redundant questions because they are so unprepared.\n\nIf you are applying for a mathematics position in a run-of-the-mill junior high or high school, they will ask if you mind teaching the lower level courses (i.e. the worst possible class). Be honest with yourself.\n\nAfter completing my BS in mathematics, I applied and got a position in one of the "best" high schools in my area. I was the only math teacher with a degree in math!! The whole experience was very eye opening. About half of the so-called honors students were marginal at best. I mean, come on, a calculus student should already know how to graph a straight line or how to add fractions!!\n\nIf you are/were a strong mathematics student, then do yourself a favor and go to graduate school while everything is fresh. Skip the public school charade and work at a college. The atmosphere is so much better in every possible sense. But, that is just my honest opinion.

How about with the truth? He's either going to learn it from you, or from his friends at school. Be open, be honest, and tell him the basics, then ask him if he has any questions. Be sure to remind him that he can come to you with any questions he may have in the future. Believe me, he'll respect you a lot more if you're open and honest with him about it.

Try the SQ4R method...\n\n(Before the lesson)\nS= Survey the chapter before the lesson.  Skim through the sections reading the bold, headings, italics, pictures, etc. to get an overview for what the teacher/professor will be discussing during class.\n\nQ= Question. Figure out what you know about the subject, ask yourself what you want to know (or look at the questions at the end of the section) and prepare 1-2 questions for class.\n\n(The skimming and questioning should take no more than 5-10 minutes since it's only a preview)\n\n(After the lesson)\nR1= Read.  Read the section and your class notes. \n\nR2= Recite.  Ask yourself the questions that you had before the lesson and the ones that arose in class and answer them using your class notes or the reading passage.\n\nR3= Relate.  Link the information with something that you already know and is personally meaningful (e.g. a math lesson on fractions/percentages could be related to a baseball player's batting average)\n\nR4= Review.  Skim over the section again and quiz yourself to ensure retention of the information.

When I went to college studying math education, I minored in psychology.  Then I did graduate work in Guidance.  My first teaching job was in a very small high school were I taught math and also served as a counselor.  I quickly realized that I was not mature enough to be a counselor and that teaching math was the career for me.   I have had several opportunities to return to counseling, but I couldn't see leaving the math classroom.\n     The point is, these two jobs require radically different personalities and skills in working with students.  I would hope that things like amount of homework to be graded would not influence such an important decision.  \n      What should  you really consider?  Do you love your chosen subject?  Are you comfortable in front of a class?  How do you feel about the administrative responsiblities that are associated with the guidance position?  Do you have special skills that make you successful in working one on one with students who are experiencing problems?  These are the kinds of questions that you should consider when making  these life changing decisions.
