Blog 17: Fourth Interview


I'm currently planning on interviewing a sensei with many years of experience in teaching. I'm not fully sure of who exactly, but I have a very good idea who.

Questions:
1. How does it affect a child if their parents are actively involved?
2. Do you think it helps your students learn more/better if you have a good parent-sensei relationship? Why? 
3. How is parental involvement important to teaching karate to kids?
4. How does it affect a child if their parents are not involved?
5. In what ways does having parents involved in class (ie holding bags) help kids learn and practice more at home? 
6. What are some ways to get parents to be involved?
7. How important for teaching is having a thorough background in karate?
8. How much experience does a person need to have in order to be able to do a good job teaching?
9. What do you feel is the most important skill to have in order to have good teaching ability? Why? (ie patience, enunciation, etc.)
10. What do you feel is necessary to know in order to have a complete background knowledge in karate?
11. What is your teaching technique, and why do you feel it makes you successful in teaching?
12. What have you found to be the best way to explain a technique in a way that a child can understand?
13. What is the best way to teach/cater to all different learning styles(ie auditory, kinesthetic, visual)?
14. What is the best way to prepare yourself to teach kids with special needs?
15. How do you get children with special needs to learn karate the most/best?
16. Do you feel that being prepared with equipment for activities is very important, or do you think that improvising an activity without equipment can be just as effective? Why?
17. How important is it to have a front desk with an prepared with an organized system to sign up kids and with information?
18. With what frequency do you see injuries occur during your classes, and would having a first aid certification help deal with these emergencies? Why?
19. How important is teaching the traditional/philosophical ideals to kids learning karate? Why?
20. How does understanding basic philosophical ideals (having a piece of mind through practice) help kids develop their karate skill?
21. Throughout the years, what is the best things that's worked for you in teaching karate to kids?
