Applying for a new position will often include an interview, or several, and just like an athlete prepares for a competition or an actor for a performance, teachers should prepare for an interview. Please scroll down for session feedback.

    1. I made this interview practice with Mr Young and I chose the bilingual primary teacher option. He explained each question and what it means and why they ask it. Next he commmented on my answers and what I indicated and how to improve my answers. I highly recommend it.

    2. Hi Robert. I have big news for you! I just quit my job yesterday! I had been asking myself if that was the right thing to do, and after some deep thoughts I made up my mind. Thanks a lot for all the support provided during this process. I always recommend you to my colleagues.
      Keep in touch!

    3. I had a mock interview with Robert couple of weeks ago while applying for a job opening. The mock interview lasted 1 hour and I was asked multiple questions, some of them actually appeared on my real interview later on. Robert was really professional , likable and extremely helpful. He not only corrected my grammatical mistakes but also gave me a piece of advise on my attitude and the "message" I wanted to pass on to the interviewer. I strongly reccommend Robert´s interview practice.

    4. Last week, I had two practise interviews with Robert for a position in an important finance and investment company. Yesterday, I had the interview and aprox half of Robert's questions occurred and I was very happy with the interview strategies I used. Today I received the message that I am selected for the final round so I recommend Robert's interview practise.
