What does New Oriental require of teaching assistants?
SAT teaching assistant requirements: 1, earnest, practical and diligent; 2, can work continuously for more than a month, and to be full-time; In view of the particularity of New Oriental Summer School, it is necessary for teaching assistants to accept the arrangement of their superiors and sacrifice part of their rest time when necessary. In addition, many teaching assistants have been recruited recently. Found a problem, the teaching assistant work has great instability, which also brought us a lot of trouble. Most teaching assistants didn't tell us the truth when they came to the interview. Most college students who interview teaching assistants have a lot of hands to prepare, and New Oriental is one of them. Their general ideas are: New Oriental hires first, has guaranteed internship opportunities, or has something to do; Then look for other "more meaningful" things. I also try to see the thoughts of the teaching assistant interviewer directly during the interview, and then try to filter them out. For a family unit, people with scattered thoughts and many tricks are unwelcome and must not be used! Even so, I met two college students, who first agreed to be teaching assistants, but later told them not to do it. One of the students worked for two months in a row, and I was very pleased to think that this classmate helped us solve a big problem. As a result, less than half a month after the interview, the students said that the summer vacation would not come on the grounds of going abroad for exchanges. Well, I can't tie people to New Oriental, whether overseas or at home. There may be a real reason, so I didn't pursue these two people's problems too much. First question, why did you come to New Oriental as a teaching assistant? There are many people who come to New Oriental as teaching assistants, but the reasons are nothing more than these: increasing work experience, improving people's communication skills, understanding New Oriental, improving English level and so on. Let's start with work experience. What work experience do you want to gain when you come to New Oriental? The work of most regular small class assistants is simple: keeping attendance records, taking notes, and helping students order meals. What kind of work experience can this increase? Think about it before you answer me! In addition to the skills of dealing with people, small class teaching assistants are usually calm and don't need to communicate with students too much. Can they improve their interpersonal skills? If you come to New Oriental to do sales or customer service for a month, it is ok, but the job content of the teaching assistant can't give you any skills in dealing with people. Second, understand New Oriental? It is not excluded that fans who love New Oriental will be teaching assistants. But I don't agree with the corporate culture that most interviewers claim to like, love and yearn for New Oriental. The purpose of my own teaching in New Oriental is not to "yearn for the corporate culture of New Oriental", but I still did it for more than three years. Those "quasi-teaching assistants" who are eager to transfer to other places before they start to do it, yearn for New Oriental culture! ! Finally, improving English level is also the most used reason. But unfortunately, being a teaching assistant can't improve your English! Some people say that you can attend classes for free as a teaching assistant. On the one hand, it shows that this person's motivation to be a teaching assistant is not pure, on the other hand, it shows that this person has misunderstandings about learning. Have classes while studying? Who says you will make progress after class? Will you do well in the exam? Teaching should be combined with practice. Many students in small classes think that classroom learning in New Oriental is invalid because they have made great mistakes! They just listened to the class and didn't do exercises, so it didn't work! If the teaching assistant comes to New Oriental just to attend classes, the result will be the same! ! The second question is, what do you want to get as a teaching assistant in New Oriental? All the reasons mentioned above for coming to New Oriental as a teaching assistant have been denied, so what can I get from coming to New Oriental? The answers are still varied, and some answers need to be found in the works. For example, for a psychology major, being a teaching assistant can let him/her know the level, level, personality, hobbies and so on of the current students. These first-hand materials can help college students to complete their studies better, and can be written into graduation thesis, examples of studying abroad for PS, and can also be used in future consulting work. Can you get these in class? ! For another example, for an English education major, the teaching assistant of New Oriental can make him/her think: Why do students have such problems? Why can't you learn English well? Why do you think English learning is boring? Why are you unconscious? This idea can also help students improve, which is much more practical and useful than listening to a class in New Oriental! ! For another example, for a computer major, you can even think about how to make a complete, detailed and convenient English learning software. What kind of software can students accept? Therefore, we can think about how to use computer software tools to improve the efficiency of language research and English teaching, and how to combine computer software with English learning more closely. As a result, this computer major student has his own research direction and good field, which is much more valuable than listening to a class in New Oriental! ! When you come to New Oriental as a teaching assistant, you are working for New Oriental and serving its customers. You're here to work! You have changed from a customer to a worker and a service provider. So New Oriental won't put a lot of energy into you. If you want to improve your ability and gain something, you have to rely on yourself! When New Oriental pays attention to you, it is often when you make any mistakes! Third question, how much time do you have for New Oriental? This is also what I particularly value when recruiting teaching assistants. When a person goes to work in the company, the company will certainly consider how long this person can work for me. For the unit, personnel flow means instability. Therefore, the longer employees help in the same unit, the more stable the unit, the more United people, the more experienced employees, the better tacit understanding, and the higher execution and efficiency. It's a pity that most of the students who come to New Oriental as teaching assistants shoot guns to change the guerrilla mentality of a place. I will work as a teaching assistant in New Oriental for one month this summer vacation, and practice in a company for one month next winter vacation, and then change in the summer vacation. This is still good. Do several internships in a bad summer vacation. As I said before, teaching assistants with a lot of ideas and tricks will not be liked by any home unit. Before you come to work as a teaching assistant, I hope you can think clearly about how much working time you can guarantee to New Oriental. Can I work full-time in a given time? I once met a teaching assistant in the middle school department, who worked in the autumn weekend. There are four weekends in a month. The first weekend, I was in class, and she had something at home and asked for leave. The second weekend, I was in class, and her relatives got married and asked for leave; On the third weekend, her distant relatives got married and asked for leave; The fourth considerate, I was in class, and she came, but she was late because of the rain and traffic jam that day. There are four weekends in a month, three weekends have a holiday, and one weekend came, but it was late. On rainy days, the bus speed is slow, the time to get on and off is longer than usual, and the time on the road is definitely longer than usual. This is completely predictable, and being late is completely avoidable. Can't you fucking get out early? ! This is not only a question of what impression it will leave on me and my students and clients, but also a question of damaging the image of New Oriental, and it is also a question of reflecting the professional quality of teaching assistant MM! ! I hope all teaching assistants can work in New Oriental for one month, preferably the whole summer vacation, and it is best to work in New Oriental for several consecutive holidays. Only in this way can we increase our work experience and find and get what we want. That's all. Please all those who want to be teaching assistants in New Oriental seriously consider the above problems. Think about it, and then come back. Otherwise, it is not good for yourself; For New Oriental and its customers, there may be disadvantages.
