1:1 11+ Interview Preparation
The first part of the session is 1.5 hours and consists of the Interview Preparation Workshop.
The workshop uses our 11+ Interview Practice Skills Book. This must be purchased by the client before the workshop.
The workshop starts with some confidence boosting activities, aimed at encouraging children to think about their own qualities and what makes them special. We aim to nurture a growth mindset amongst the children so that they feel enthusiastic about participating in an interview and excited to share their knowledge, experiences and ideas with their interviewer.
Next, we will focus on reading and responding to a range of interview questions. Topics include:
– You and your family (including personal achievements);
– You and your school (including school based activities and achievements);
– The school to which you are applying;
– Responding to unusual questions on the spot;
– Responding to moral, ethical and dilemma based questions;
– Science and maths based questions;
– Describing an image;
– Reading a poem/passage;
– Current affairs
Mock Interview:
Once your child has completed the Interview Workshop part of the session, Your child is invited to take a short break, after which they begin their mock interview. This will take twenty minutes. After the interview, written feedback will be sent via email.
“Thank you so much for the great interview sessions yesterday and today. These were so inspirational and such realistic mock interviews and we now know how to prepare the answers to these as well as think about the attitude & mindset. We practiced and revised this evening based on your feedback which is really specific, helpful and full of kind words.”
“My child mentioned she really enjoyed the interview workshop. The tutor “Charlene was very thorough and enthusiastic about the interview preparation and this has helped her gain more confidence with answering the questions. We felt it was value for money too.”
