The interviewer is trying to gauge your communication with this question, and how you interface with both students and colleagues. Whatever your communication style may be, be sure to describe it in a concise manner that will resound positively with the interviewer. Keep in mind that your communication style can certainly vary a bit when talking about communicating with students and teachers. If you personally would take different approaches with each, feel free to discuss your approaches with your interviewer.

"With the students that I would be working with, my approach would of course depend on their age level. But no matter their age, I would communicate them in a friendly and direct manner, encouraging them as they navigate their career as a virtual student. In regards to the teachers and educators on the team, I would be professional, honest and direct. I know that my expertise is valuable, so if I want to have the ears and the respect of students and colleagues alike, then I model the same in the way I communicate with them."
