they always start the interview with an ice breaker question
then generic why do you want to do vcess, what subjects do you want to tutor, do you wanna team teach?
then they hit you with scenarios, what do you do if you ave a rowdy student? what do you do if you can't answer a student's question? etc.

Hey guys,
The VCESS Directors are still looking for tutors in a few subjects, so if you know any tutors who can help out with English or LOTEs (especially Indonesian) we'd greatly appreciate it.

No can you please go to training day with me instead?  I don't want to be a loner/loser and I'm in Japan during the camp.  I leave for Japan at 11pm on the training day.

out of curiosity, what sort of questions did they ask in the interviews?

The first question they asked was whether I liked Taylor Swift or Miley Cyrus.
Then they mostly asked me about my teaching methodology and what I can do to help students and get them involved, i.e. if a student was struggling but too shy to ask for help etc.

Hey guys, I hope all of you who have signed up to tutor at VCESS are getting excited for the program! Just a reminder to our tutors here on AN to fill out your Tutor Training Form online if you haven't already.
If you haven't filled it out, or would like to help out with our Academic Seminars (where you get up and have a chat about your course) or our Workshops (where you teach kids a new skill for an hour), let me know and I'll send you the relevant links.

If you've got any further questions, let me know and I'll do my best to help out!
