Talking about yourself can be challenging, especially when you feel like you may not have a lot of life experience. Focus on the great things that your educators have said about you in the past, either on report cards, in passing, or on the remarks on an assignment.
Your favorite teacher is someone who recognizes your hard work and your talents. They may be impressed with your writing and communication skills, how well you work in groups and your enthusiasm. If you have spent any time one-on-one with your teacher and received feedback, share what you have learned from your experiences in their class. Talk about how they noticed your strengths and helped you to develop them. Your perseverance, kindness and hard working spirit are all great qualities to share in your interview.
