QUESTION 17 OF 30

What is your discipline style like?

Every teacher has their own discipline style. An interviewer may not care what your style is, as long as you have one. This way, they know you have a plan in place and enough experience to successfully lead your classroom.

"When it comes to my discipline style, I have protocols in place that students follow. As students listen and interact, I have rewards for them. If they do not follow directions, there are consequences that follow. This has worked well for me over the years."

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 have protocols in place. We go over them at the beginning of the year. I constantly try to reinforce them throughout. If problems occur I talk to the teacher and at times have called mom and dad.

Marcie's Feedback

It sounds like you have good discipline procedures in place. Can you talk more about these rules and how you enforce them? Can you give an example of a time you had to discipline a student and what the outcome was? Use the STAR method to explain the situation, your role and actions, and what the result was.
