ESL job interview question: Are you most productive working alone or in a group?

Recommended answer:

The answer depends on your personal characteristics. You can answer that you need some private time for planning purposes. 

You also need private time whenever you design materials for your students and prepare for lessons but otherwise you like the activity and noise of people around you, as well as the ability to share ideas with teachers and students.
