While no one can be both of these things, all of the time, most elementary school teachers are both positive and energetic most of the time. Share with the interviewer which adjective you feel fits your personality best and share how you can remain upbeat and optimistic. Feel free to use an example if it would help to illustrate you in action in the classroom. Use open and relaxed body language to underscore your positivity.

"Yes, I'm a very positive person, and I thrive on the energy of my students. I strive to show up every day with positive energy for them. I try to model those qualities for my students, and one of the ways I do that is to begin each day by talking about something good that happened or that we can anticipate."
