Lecturer Interview

BRIAN ANTHONY

Hello Everyone

My name Is Brian and I received my Associate CIPD membership for successfully completing Masters Degree in HR. I applied to become a lecturer in Business with specialisms in a local college and have been invited for an interview this friday.

I do not have any teaching experience. The only experience I have is through my placement year where I was responsible for delivering and coordinating training programmes. Can some one please advice what questions may be asked at the interview. I would really appreciate any guidance.

Thanks

Parents
  • Welcome to the communities Brian!

    I can't offer any specific advice, but from my own experience as a mature college student doing my qualifications I can say that the majority of staff had no teaching experience at all. In fact one was so appalling I made a number of complaints until the lecturer was removed from the course. (Read from an essay they'd submitted on a degree course, full of technical jargon which no one in the class could/would understand/not allowed to ask questions until their lectures were over etc.)

    We even got a lecture from a professor of learning/teaching, on teaching methods where they spent the majority of the hour lecturing us on how poor lecturing was as a method of teaching/learning.

    So I wouldn't worry too much about having no teaching experience. I'm sure someone will be along with a better answer than mine!!!!
