I completed one phone interview and one in person interview, which included a detailed mock lesson where I demonstrated my teaching skills, lesson planning abilities, and classroom management techniques effectively.

The interview started out with 3 interviewers (the Director of Enrollment, Director of Student Success and the lead Sciences teacher). They asked me a bit about myself and why I was interested, what my availability was like. After a couple questions, one of them had to leave to attend to their daily tasks, which was reasonable. They asked me about my teaching experience and my approach to teaching. Some of the questions were a bit difficult for me like how to teach someone with ADHD in general. They followed up with some easier questions that were more concrete. They offered me a second interview doing a 15 minute mock lesson to their lead Sciences Teacher on a challenging physics subject (I have a Bachelors in Physics as my highest education). Generally, they seemed kind and open. The Academy's emphasis on 1 on 1, flexible learning styles makes sense to me, but ultimately, they did not offer me the job. It was likely due to my lack of formal experience as a teacher. I initially thought the job was going to be for a tutoring position, but they have 1 on 1 teaching positions as their main teaching approach, kind of like tutoring but with full responsibility of a student's learning, rather than as a supplement or learning help.
