The ability to adapt to change in the workplace is a crucial skill to possess. Talk to the interviewer about a time you have had to adjust to changes on the job. They want to know how you handled the change, so talk about it and address the outcome.

"I feel that educators adapt to change daily! The vibe in the classroom is different every day, and student moods and efforts vary as well. I am well accustomed to working in a changing environment."

In South Africa, we have 11 languages, so when I moved to university, it was to a region that spoke a completely different language to mine. I come from a Zulu speaking province, but where I studied, most people speak Setswana and Afrikaans, so it was a big transition. The best way to adapt, in my opinion, is to fully immerse yourself in that culture, so I learned how to speak the language, but also I learned how the people interact and live their day-to-day lives. I had an amazing time, and today I am happy that I was pushed out of my comfort zone.

Rachelle's Feedback
Most people cannot speak more than 1 or 2 languages - it's pretty cool that you stretched yourself to speak additional languages while also immersing yourself in learning the culture. Great job pushing yourself out of your comfort zone and having an amazing time along the way :)
