Give an honest answer that's aligned with the school's values. If you're a workaholic, paint a picture of dedication and tireless work. If you prefer to have more work-life balance, paint a picture of a balanced and focused individual. Imagine yourself as an engine; consider what makes up your fuel. Connect your response to how it benefits students.

"I'm very dedicated to helping children. In a sense, I see them as my own because they and their parents trust me to do what's best for them and teach them what they need to become functioning adults. When I'm there with them in the classroom, they have my complete and undivided attention. I focus on their needs and take care of them. Then, to recharge myself and stay balanced, when I get out of work, I spend some time taking care of myself; I make sure that I have what it takes to be my best for them."
