i'm pretty nervous.

Answer 1

hi there;

i think they will ask question like ;

1- what make u like this job?

2- do yourself have kids ? and how do u handle them etc...

i personally feel they want to find out do u have PASSION + ATTITUDE  to this job ---not so much on other matter

the rest is side issue ---later on which can be discuss

i wish you good luck

Answer 2

i think they will ask you,

"why are you interested in this job?"

"do you have any experience?"

"how do handle difficult kids?"

"do you have any confident for this job"

"are you willing to spend extra time with the kids?"

Answer 3

They'll probably ask a few psychology type questions to guage how you'll behave when children play up. They might ask you questions like, 'What would you do if one of the boys hits a girl and makes her cry?' They will watch for your reaction. Don't over-react and say something silly like, 'I'd smack the boy for being nasty!', that won't help you at all.

If you've had training for this position, follow it to the 'T' with your answers. If you haven't, I wish you luck!

Answer 4

They will ask this (really stupid) question -

DO you like kids ?
