I have got an interview as a learning support assistant in a secondary school, any tips/advice?

Learning support is a very large and open-ended path. Do you know if it is in special education, attachment to a single student who is physically or emotionally challenged or just a person who does whatever is needed that day - substitute teacher, library aide, office fill-in? In any case, you need to be a people person and have the ability to adapt quickly as the needs arise. You might just have to manage students who need to fulfill computer-assisted review and reteaching for those who are not on the correct level and/or stage. Whatever the job, you need to be flexible and like people. Too many people who have jobs like this find out they are not suited to the task and they do not enjoy the work and the people around them do not benefit from their being there. If you have previous experience with students, special education, family or friends you have aided during illness or emotional problems; tell the interviewer your background as it relates to the job offered and assess your fit with the job as s/he does the same in the interview.I have got an interview as a learning support assistant in a secondary school, any tips/advice?
I would note down any previous experience that you may have, this is a big part of being successful now, degrees and qualifications come after this big experience factor. I am a qualified early years practitioner and I cannot get a job at the mo because of experience factors.





Keep ur head up, be confident and note down all you know.!I have got an interview as a learning support assistant in a secondary school, any tips/advice?
I'm a secondary student and i strongly recomend not to be a pushover : first impressions are vital and when we first meet a teacher and they don't actually tell you off because they're too nervous and wanna make a good impression we tend to take advantage. you will gain much more respect if you stay strong and tell the kids straight. =]
as with any interview try not to let nerves get 2 u be urself i know uve probably heard this a thousand times but its always been the best advice ive ever been given good luck
Seriously; don't do it. The government adverts hype up the good side.
