 Teaching Demo Interview

• The interview will be about 25 minutes long.

• For the last 10-15 minutes, you’ll be expected to give a demo lesson, based on the
content of the slides. You’ll have some freedom in how you teach the material.

• We will interrupt the demo lesson after 10-15 minutes.

• The Interviewer and the interviewee both have the same lesson material. Assume that
the interviewer is a 5-6 year old student.

• This is an interview for an online teaching position. Please be prepared with a clutter-
free space, bright lighting, professional attire, and central positioning of yourself in front
of the camera.
