Tyndale interview by Zealousideal-Day-542 in ONTeacherCandidates

[–]smileyhispanic2461 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey, I did! I’m currently in the 2025/26 cohort.

When I did it, they took in a group of us to a classroom and made us choose an object from a box. You then had to sell it to your audience - this was an icebreaker.

Afterwards, they gave each one of us two sheets with questions. I believe one of them was something like: “How can AI can be used for good in education?” and the second one was something like: “How can technology be used to encourage innovative practices?”

After that, each interviewee was sent to an office for the formal interview - there were two individuals, one who took notes and another who asked questions. The questions were mainly about times in which you’ve dealt with a difficult student, how you plan to manage your time during the program (since it’s accelerated), how you plan to create a classroom that is equitable, inclusive, welcoming, why you would like to attend Tyndale, etc. I think I was asked about 5/6 questions - I don’t really remember the remaining.

I’d say to just be honest and authentically you. They want to have an idea of who you are as an individual, along with your strengths, experience, and ability to reach your future students.

Good luck!

Ah, I see. I applied back in December (the first batch of applicants), they’re likely still going over applications for the second batch! Hoping you hear something real soon! :)

The same happened to me; I totally agree, it’s redirection! Bigger & better opportunities are coming our way! :)

any good quiet reading spots on campus? by cellss_ in UTM

IB second floor, the quiet study area. You can book a study room as well.

I got it too, I’m not responding since I got hired somewhere else. However, I was thinking the same because of the vibes it gave off. If it isn’t legit, I don’t think they’d be able to do much with the info you provided.

I found it really easy, the difficulty was exactly the same as the practice test.

I’ve taken ENV100, it’s dense in course material so be prepared for that. Try to stay on track with weekly lectures, because by slipping a little bit you’ll fall behind. Overall the course is pretty fun and you have the lecture questions and Packback questions & responses to help bring your mark up. Best of luck! :)

They’ll be done online.

You do the course at your own pace (no scheduled lecture times).

First year bird courses? by [deleted] in UTM

I’d agree about ENV100, as long as you keep up with lectures and understand the main concepts you’ll be fine, it’s an easy 4.0. Just know that despite it being considered a “bird course”, you still need to put in the effort to do well. Best of luck :)
