Share a time with the interviewer when you were given a great deal of responsibility and you handled each and every thing that came your way. Be sure to provide an appropriate amount of context so the interviewer can understand the situation, and be specific about what you were entrusted with and how you delivered. Don't hold back details here or begin to feel as if you're bragging, the interviewer wants to hear that you can handle the responsibility of working with students and perform under pressure.

"Over the summer, I work as a program assistant at a summer camp. Last summer, I was tasked with planning the entire field day, where all different camps come together and compete in various field day events and activities. I had to plan and arrange everything from transportation, to food, to activities and equipment, to first aid, to the schedule, and come up with a separate plan for inclement weather. It was such a huge responsibility, but my manager saw the potential in me and knew, with my attention to detail, that I could pull it off. The day went off without a hitch and I had every single detail planned out. I was so proud of myself and my boss was impressed by all of my work and poise that day."
