First of all, never say 'wanna' 'gonna' in an interview. I assume that you will dress appropriately for your interview, smile and shake the interviewer's hand. Obviously your responses will depend on what the interviewer will ask you.
You can say something like this:
Good morning Mr....... I am very happy to be here for this interview. Let me introduce myself. As you know from my CV, my name is SRGG, and I am 22 years old. I graduated from Huhhot University in 2011 and I have been volunteering as a teachers's aide at PPPPPP school every week since January. [OR state some sort of experience with children]
Because I am here for this interview, it seems that all my hard work just might have paid off. (Smile. at the interviewers)
I am looking forward to being a part of your teaching team and I am an excellent communicator with both adults and children.



Activity!

I propose you to make a similar interview but with your own information!! Please share your work in this blog, so that we can all take new ideas for our future job interviews!!

Here's a link with more ideas: http://www.italki.com/knowledge/page/HOW%20TO%20SUCCEED%20IN%20JOB%20INTERVIEWS.htm
See you all during the week! I hope this blog is useful for you!!
Bye-bye buddies! ;)

    Good afternoon everyone! How are you doing? Our weekend is ending and I'm sure you're getting ready for the begining of a new week. Today I have such a good song to share with you and some activities related to the song to practice grammar and to get new vocabulary! I hope you enjoy it! :)

    Here's the link from youtube!


    1. Match the halves; fill the gaps with one of the following prepositions, and then translate the meaning of this verse.

    Prepositions: 
    for, like, of, in, on, at, about.

    1) Now and then I think ____
    2) ____ when you said

    3) Told myself that

    4) But felt so lonely
    5) But that was love and
    a) you felt so happy you could die
    b) ______ your company

    c) it's an ache I still remember

    d) when we were together
    e) you were right ______ me

    2. Fill the gaps with the right words from this box:

    addicted, end, friends, glad, resignation, sense, sadness,

    You can get _______to a certain kind of ________
    Like ________to the end, always the ______
    So, when we found that we could not make _______
    Well, you said that we would still be _______
    But I'll admit that I was ______that it was over


    3. Listen to this part. Then, guess and match the verbs and the meaning in this song.


    But you didn't have to cut me off
    Make out like it never happened and that we were nothing
    And I don't even need your love
    But you treat me like a stranger and that feels so rough
    No, you didn't have to stoop so low
    Have your friends collect your records and then change your number
    I guess that I don't need, that though
    Now you're just somebody that I used to know (X3)


    Verbs
    Cut (me) off
    Make out
    Need
    Stoop (low)
    Collect
    Change
    Feel
    Guess
    Meanings
    Necesitar / To feel the necessity
    Distanciar, apartar a alguien / To separate from someone
    Hacer como que / To pretend
    Rebajarse (caer bajo) / To lower oneself
    Cambiar / To make a substitution
    Sentar (mal) / To experience an emotion
    Imaginar / To think or believe

    4. Listen to this part and make a list with all the verbs you find and the verb tenses (e.g. think- present simple)

    Now and then I think of all the times you screwed me over
    But had me believing it was always something that I'd done
    But I don't wanna live that way, reading into every word you say
    You said that you could let it go
    And I wouldn't catch you hung up on somebody that you used to know


    *Screw somebody over- hacer daño
    *Wanna- want to


    Bye bye buddies! :)
