The interviewer is interested to know why you specifically want to work at their school as a math teacher to understand your motivation for applying to their school and if you have done any research on their school's math program. It is also a way for them to gauge your interest in teaching math and your passion for education. Show the interviewer you have done your homework and can give specific reasons why you chose their school over others in the area.
