Mock Teaching Interview

How the interview works

If your application moves forward, we'll set up a short interview where we play the role of a confused student and you teach us a real lesson — usually 15–20 minutes. This is how we see your real teaching style, not just your grades.

We'll email or message you to schedule.

Plan to prep 1–2 hours for the mock lesson.

Online via video, or in-person at a public library.

You'll get feedback either way within a week.

Subject you'd like to teach in the mock lesson *

Tip: select your strong subjects above first.

Rough outline of your 15–20 min lesson *

Doesn't need to be polished — we want to see how you think about teaching.

Preferred interview format *

Preferred days / times (optional)

We'll confirm the exact time over email or message.
