If you have ever heard of an 'Elevator Pitch' - this type of interview question is a great reason to have one! Why do you love what you do? What teaching methods do you use? What makes you the best, and most engaged, potential hire for Sylvan Learning? Briefly discuss your teaching and mentorship style and close by giving an example of a time when you were recognized for your teaching or leadership methods.

"Education has been my pure passion ever since I started my first teaching job in 2004. There are endless ways that a person can educate another person so I would describe my teaching style as fluid. I will adapt to the needs of my student as much as possible. Being an active listener of words, and body language, is a very important part of my teaching style as well. I also make sure that I take the time to get to know my students individually so that I can give them the personalized attention that they deserve. My students consistently send me accolades for my work and I often hear from them even after they have completed my class."
