When I applied for my first teaching position, I was TERRIFIED districts wouldn't take me seriously because I was only 21 years old. I had just graduated with my masters, and I had wanted to teach since I was 5 years old. 

 

Fast forward to Spring of 2018, I flew from Oregon to New Mexico for two different job interviews. Both of which regard me to teach a demo lesson. I turned my biggest weakness as a teacher into my biggest strength. 

 

I did TWO interviews on the same day and BOTH of them offered me the teaching position DURING the interview. Here's a breakdown of all the steps and teacher interview strategies I took to get there.
