Hey Nurses,

I need some help. I have been an RN for 4 years and I have decided to begin my quest into becoming an educator. So next week, I have an interview with a local community college for an LVN instructor. Needless to say, I have no instructor experience and I would like to know what questions are typically asked during an instructor interview?

Any advice will help, thanks in advance! :)

Hello! How did it go? I would love to teach!

It went well! I got the job! :)

I think my personality and honest answers/opinions were a selling point. I think they really liked me. To answer my own question (in case there are others out there in the same situation), they asked me scenarios about dealing with academic integrity, problems in clinical settings with students, problem solving, conflict resolution, etc.

Contrary to my belief, there was no "nursing content" so to speak. By that, I mean, questions like "tell me how you would explain the renin-angiotensin system to a student" or something like that.

I cant wait to begin my journey! :)

Congratulation !! Be sure to keep us posted ! I would love to hear more about it !
