What is your greatest weakness?
A: People sometimes tell me that I come up with
too many creative ideas. I’m always
trying to think “outside the box” when I design lesson plans, units, or
extended projects. I always want to
include more activities and more projects in my lessons and sometimes find
myself getting impatient when I don’t have enough time to do them all. I’m still learning how to be more patient
with my creativity.
This is not the time to rant about all your imperfections or, even
worse, the imperfections of others.
Don’t admit to a weakness in teaching a particular subject, or in
classroom management, or disciplining students.
Select one or two personality attributes that are more general than
specific. For example, trying to do too
much, being a perfectionist, running out of time, not getting to everything on
a “To Do” list. These are
“imperfections” we all have and that we all wrestle with. This is the only time you don’t want to be
too specific. Select an “innocent”
weakness and frame it in positive terms.
Above all, keep your response short and sweet.
