QUESTION 16 OF 33

Why are you the best teacher for us?

Bragging about yourself in an interview can be really tough to do but this is your time to shine! Which characteristics and career accomplishments have made you a stand-out candidate? Perhaps you have received some academic awards or have been given special accolades in your most recent position. There is nobody like you and now you need to express that to the interviewer.

"I am the best teacher for you because I have a consistent history of excelling in my previous teaching roles. I have been nominated and awarded Teacher of the Year for five consecutive years. In addition to these successes, I have a strong ability to make fast and effective relationships with my students."

Community answers are written by other candidates practicing this set. Reading how others frame the same question is one of the fastest ways to sharpen your own.

Anonymous Answer

I am the best teacher because of my own unique experiences. I learned a lot from my mistakes which made me a better person. I don't fear failures because I am resilient and have confidence in myself to shine back up. I am dedicated, and I bring a lot of real-time experience from my previous accounting profession to the teaching realm, which is an asset to help students learn in a meaningful way.

Rachelle's Feedback

It's great that you mentioned the benefits of your dual career. Also, showing students that it's okay to fail and learn, is a nice approach.
