Blog 6: Second Interview Preparation

The purpose of this second interview is to justify your mentor as an expert in the field. Thus, you will be asking them at least 5 questions about their background and/or the background of the organization or company where they work.

1. Who is your mentor and where do they work?
 My mentor is Ms. Chami and she works at the Montessori Academy of Chino.

2. What five questions will you ask them about their background?
I plan to ask her the following questions:

• What made you decide to become a preschool/transitional kindergarten teacher? Why not pick one over the other?
• Have you worked at other schools? If so, what are some differences in the schools?
• What does the "Montessori Method" mean to you?
• What kind of education did you have? How do you think it affected your life?
• As a parent, what kind of education do you want your children to have? Why?
