Ho presentato la mia candidatura online. La procedura ha richiesto 2 giorni. Ho sostenuto un colloquio presso Mathnasium (Charlotte, NC) nel mese di ago 2018
Colloquio
Expect a short discussion of job roles and responsibilities and two examinations. One examination covers mathematics through about 8th grade and a good score on this exam is required in order to work as an instructor. The second examination covers mathematics through about 1st semester of university, and a high score on this exam is not a prerequisite to employment. Mathnasium tests you on your higher-level maths abilities so that they understand your capabilities should a student with more specific needs require assistance.
It is not expected that you have any prior work experience.

Colloquio
Pretty straightforward overall. The main challenge is just getting through the long and tedious math exam, since it takes a lot of focus and patience to work through all the problems without making small mistakes. The material itself is manageable, but the length of the assessment can definitely make it mentally exhausting by the end.

They mainly just had me take a pretty long math exam. It was fairly straightforward overall, but definitely tedious because of how many problems there were. The biggest thing was staying focused the entire time and carefully working through each question without making small mistakes.

Colloquio
One round over zoom and then another meeting in person. Asked common interview questions about why you'd be a good fit and had you do an example demo tutoring practice with a problem.

Colloquio
The interview process was straightforward and fairly relaxed. It started with a brief introduction and discussion about my background and interest in teaching. Then I was given a few math problems to solve and explain out loud, which focused more on how I communicated my thinking rather than just getting the correct answer. The interviewer also asked situational questions about working with students and handling different learning styles. Overall, it felt more like a conversation than a high-pressure interview.

They asked me to solve a few basic math problems and explain my reasoning step by step, and also asked how I would help a student who is struggling to understand a concept.
