Mastering That First Interview ( Group Class )

I have taught English online since 2018, and I have taught vocabulary related to job interviews on many occasions. 

The platform where I previously conducted classes on job interviews was EF Education First. In the beginning EF had a lesson plan, though I chose instead of going through the slides, to focus on mock interviews. It was through here that I came up with the various questions, which I use in this course such as "Strengths and Weaknesses", and "Goal Related Questions" ( For example, "Where do you see yourself in two years?" ).

Many of the students had an interview that was coming up, but on occasion there was a student where there job was to conduct interviews in their native language, but were now looking to conduct interviews in English. This provided an excellent opportunity for both myself, and the student  as we were able to use our experience in our perspective fields in order to  critique each others work. There was at times a student whose job it was to conduct interviews to ask a question such as, "What is your relationship status?". In most cases I would find this question irrelevant, and possibly inappropriate since it is more of a personal question. The student responded the reason why this question was asked is because the job requires a lot of travel, which may not be good for one's personal life. I could see her point, though I think when one is researching they will be told in advance that travel will be a significant part of the job. ( Examples of this would be someone working in aviation for example ).  

The age group for this class will be high school students, and some may use it to secure an internship, if not a job. Though I believe if someone is not looking for a job, this class will prepare them for that moment, when the time comes.

During my time at EF, the students were mainly adult students. I did have some students from high school, though none from elementary school years. During my time at Outschool I have worked with younger students focusing on language learning pronunciation ( Tongue Twisters in English is a class popular with younger students ) I have also been a tutor with younger students helping them with random subjects in the early 2000s, and was a substitute teacher in local school districts working with students in special education.
