Would you hire this candidate? en-us 2017-11-06 12:32:29 UTC 2017-12-05 16:14:52 UTC hello@padlet.com Many of our students need a positive male role model. https://padlet.com/kathyprice/4t2k0om8h7oi/wish/213333611 2017-12-05 15:23:31 UTC https://padlet.com/kathyprice/4t2k0om8h7oi/wish/213333611 This is certainly a common situation that many teachers are confronted with. https://padlet.com/kathyprice/4t2k0om8h7oi/wish/213333931 2017-12-05 15:23:59 UTC https://padlet.com/kathyprice/4t2k0om8h7oi/wish/213333931 I like that he talks about high expectations, and I would like to hear more about what that looks like in the classroom https://padlet.com/kathyprice/4t2k0om8h7oi/wish/213333970 2017-12-05 15:24:03 UTC https://padlet.com/kathyprice/4t2k0om8h7oi/wish/213333970 I would give this candidate consideration as he is working to build character with his students. I also think it's positive that he has high standards. I would ask more questions related to the topic of grading and differentiating instruction to have a better understanding of the teacher's philosophy of teaching. https://padlet.com/kathyprice/4t2k0om8h7oi/wish/213334097 2017-12-05 15:24:15 UTC https://padlet.com/kathyprice/4t2k0om8h7oi/wish/213334097 I'm impressed that his tough love strategy worked and that he did not allow the parent and student to make excuses. This speaks to high standards and accountability. https://padlet.com/kathyprice/4t2k0om8h7oi/wish/213334250 2017-12-05 15:24:30 UTC https://padlet.com/kathyprice/4t2k0om8h7oi/wish/213334250 I would continue to ask him about instructional methods and about what his former supervisor remarks would be about him. https://padlet.com/kathyprice/4t2k0om8h7oi/wish/213334454 2017-12-05 15:24:50 UTC https://padlet.com/kathyprice/4t2k0om8h7oi/wish/213334454 Is he wearing the casual attire in the picture or is he dressed professionally? A professional dress would leave an impression. https://padlet.com/kathyprice/4t2k0om8h7oi/wish/213334981 2017-12-05 15:25:40 UTC https://padlet.com/kathyprice/4t2k0om8h7oi/wish/213334981 I like the accountability that he holds for students. I would want to know how that same skill set might translate to the productivity of a PLC. The tough love is there, so now I want to see that the soft skills are honed as well. https://padlet.com/kathyprice/4t2k0om8h7oi/wish/213335037 2017-12-05 15:25:45 UTC https://padlet.com/kathyprice/4t2k0om8h7oi/wish/213335037 I have more questions that I would need to ask, but my first impression is very favorable and I would consider hiring based on the rest of the interview. https://padlet.com/kathyprice/4t2k0om8h7oi/wish/213338117 2017-12-05 15:30:00 UTC https://padlet.com/kathyprice/4t2k0om8h7oi/wish/213338117
