Class review: A student-friendly interview question set (High school Edition)
This questioneer was designed to engage conversation with students to gain insight on the
quality of English lessons. The tone is open, non-judgmental, and supportive. Students can
speak honestly about English class: their confidence in their skills, mention their source of
motivation, and talk about personal learning preferences.
These questions avoid pressure and help teachers and language coaches figure out how to
support their students in a more precise way.
Recommendation: Ask these guestions sparsely as part of a conversation rather than a
formal interview, or printed test! The feedback is going to be genuine and less filtered!
