How do you engage a classroom full of adults?

"It is important to me that my students connect with the material we cover. For that reason, I try to keep content as relevant as possible and get to know students personally to find out what they hope to achieve. This way, we can work towards those goals together."

The interviewer understands that it can take a lot of talent to keep a room full of adults engaged and entertained for a significant amount of time. Discuss some of the ways that you keep your adult learners interested in your material. Focus on making content relevant to them, sparking curiosity, working with others, building relationships, and focusing on goal setting and growth.

"I encourage a lot of hands-on work in my classroom so that there are very few lulls during the lesson. Nobody likes to sit idle, and I try to respect that as much as possible. I also do my best to making all learning relevant to my students and their goals. I come up with engaging hooks to get them interested, encourage partner and group work, and constantly encourage students towards growth."
