17. How do you feel about working with students, that can sometimes be difficult due to their circumstance?
How to Answer
You can answer this question using an example of a time when you were assigned an extraordinarily difficult classroom or specific student.
Answer Example
"Last year I had a student come in part way through the year. In addition to being diagnosed with autism, the student was also highly OCD. I spent a lot of my spare time doing research and reading case studies so that I could best be equipped if this student had an outburst in the classroom. I do appreciate the challenge this situation brought to me because it pushed me to further understand the needs of this unique student."
