Volunteer coordinator Interview Questions

Last year in an afterschool program I was having discipline problems with the 4th grade class. I heard they had 3 different academic teachers since the year started. My coworker and myself talked about it and I tried to say to the kids that we would make the place a safe one because if kids feel safe they are easier to work with. I told them they were loved unconditionally. They interpreted it as no one loves you. I explained to them in front of the site coordinator and program director I said unconditional. The parents were no longer mad

last year I was an instructor in an afterschool program and it was my first time handing a large number of students. It made me realize the importance of class routines and student management as well as multitasking. When I had an opportunity to serve as a substitute one day at Superstars Literacy I learned a great deal about class management. Thus the next time I have a large class I plan to have an opening/closing circle, a talking object for students to answer questions, having students line up prior to class only allowing those who are ready to enter and certain stopping points for the line when they are outside. Additionally, I plan to have 5 minute transitions to go from one activity to the next

last year I was an afterschool program instructor managing 16 students. It made me more aware of the importance of having a class routine and student management techniques in place. When I had the opportunity to serve as a substitute at Superstars Literacy I gained many good tips on class management. Next time I have my own class I want to have opening/closing circle, talking tools, a line order, allowing students in the class only when they're ready to learn, a seating arrangement, class rules set up prior to starting class. Last year I was working in a tutoring center that emphasized high level math which I found I couldn't do. I would review the topics on my own time using the web and now I am tutoring 6th graders in math and we both listen to math videos together so we can both gain a good understanding of the topic and I also find myself remembering the concepts from last year and teaching the students shortcuts

(my position was with an organization that dealt primarily with 55 and older people) I was honest about how I probably lacked the experience that most people had due to the fact that all of my grandparents passed when I was young, but that my father was now in that category. I explained what I knew about their hesitance towards new technologies like email & web. I mentioned that it would be a welcome experience for me.

I’ve dealt with a lot of elderly people as a hospital volunteer so I’m comfortable with all sorts of people

Unorganization

Over worrying which makes me get started on the job sooner so I can get it done sooner

Did home health care taking care of my aunt and uncle he had Alzheimer's she had dementia took care of my husband through Cancer Treatments I worked in nursing homes I worked Eastern State Hospital over a. Of 40 years

I helped my mom ( had a list of different medical conditions)with some things that she had a hard time doing physically. I also took care of my dad( who had COPD) after my mom passed away in 2007. My dad passed away 1/8/19. Emo also have 2yrs+ experience in housekeeping. Even I'm not a certified CNA I do have the experience. I've been job searching for over a month to find a job. I haven’t worked in a nursing facility yet I do have the experience, understanding and knowledge for either position.

I want to aquire more experiences and skills by volunteering

To aquire more experiences and skills also it is one of the top in New York.

I talked about how I missed an opportunity to go help with the Katrina clean-up due to school, but ended up regretting not taking advantage of a great opportunity to help others. This position was my chance to do just that.

I get to work with underserved youth in education

I said that my goal is to be a labor and delivery nurse, and this is an important step I need to take. I told them that I am eager and willing to take direction, and that I am a Sutter patient who is familiar with their philosophy and excited to be a part of the volunteer force.

This is correct.
