Teaching is a collaborative profession, and schools want to hire people who are willing and able to work with others. Affirm that you're a team player by giving examples. If you don't have much teaching experience, use different examples from other sources, including volunteer experience and especially any experience involving children in this age range. Demonstrate that you understand how important collaboration is, not only to you as a career resource but also for enriching your students' learning experiences.

"I think being a team player is important because, as teachers, we can grow and improve so much more by working together. Ideas and projects can span classrooms and whole schools even, and this can model the power of collaboration to the students, and it also improves the total learning experience for them as well."
