Although that’s one of the strangest interview questions we have heard, your students might need to expect something similar, as employers often throw you off guard with unusual questions. So, along with the usual questions about their career, aspirations and why they want to work for the company, how else can you help prepare your learners for success at interview?
We think we have the answer...
At Global English we have taken time to craft great worksheets on helping learners with interview questions. We have these, along with several other key English language areas, in our Teaching English Starter Packs, which are gifts we are offering all new trainees in December. So, if you are struggling for materials to inspire your students, then look no further. Our fantastic teaching packs are designed to help any new or experienced TEFL teacher. Let’s take a look:

I would deflate the elephant, roll it up and put it in my pocket (it's a balloon).
