Teachers, if the panel asks you to talk them through a typical maths lesson

One of the biggest mistakes I hear in teacher interviews? Candidates spend two minutes explaining the maths program their school uses… …instead of explaining their teaching. Interview panels already know schools use different resources. They aren’t assessing whether you can name a program. They’re assessing whether you understand how students learn mathematics. A strong response explains: 💚 how you identify learning needs through assessment 💚 how you plan intentionally 💚 how you explicitly teach new mathematical concepts 💚 how you check for understanding throughout the lesson 💚 how you respond to misconceptions in real time 💚 how you differentiate support and extension 💚 and finally… the impact your teaching has on student learning. That’s the difference between describing a lesson… …and demonstrating your instructional expertise. 💾 Save this before your next interview. #teaching #maths #teachersoftiktok #teacherjobs #teacherinterviews
