Recommended answer:
The recruiter asks this question because he/she wants to know how much you are interested in the position you are applying for.
The above question will probably be their last question at your job interview. If you do not ask anything, they might think that you are not interested in the position. It is best to ask two or three questions.
Show your interest in the position. You can ask questions about teaching load, number of students in class, courses that you would teach if you were employed, etc.
Do not ask too many questions.
Do not ask questions about salary or similar questions. You should not forget that you are at the job interview: they did not send you a job offer and they will probably not employ you.
Choose to ask two or three of the following:
- What levels of student will I be teaching?
- What is the dress code for teachers in your school?
- What is the average class size?
- How many contact hours per week would I be required to teach?
- What types of resources and teaching aids are available in your school?
- What kinds of professional development could your school offer me?
- What kind of mentorship can I expect in my first year?
Prepare a list of about ten questions. Write them on a sheet of paper and bring to the interview. Most probably, during the interview some of these questions will be answered indirectly. Ask those that were not answered.
