The interviewer would like to know the areas of your job as a High School teacher, that you find to be the most challenging. Everyone has challenges in the workplace, and that is okay! Avoid talking about difficulty surrounding core requirements. Your example could be related to some technology, or perhaps a specific part of curriculum development.

"For me, the most challenging part of being a High School teacher is understanding how to keep each student motivated. Classroom sizes are always growing, and students are becoming more and more complex. Although it is challenging, I do embrace that challenge. I love how everyone is unique and it keeps me on my toes as an educator!"
