3. What is your greatest strength and weakness as an educator?
Pick a strength tied to student outcomes with one metric or story. For weakness, name a real one, follow it with the concrete steps you're taking (workshop, mentor, changed practice) — panels reject rehearsed non-answers like "I work too hard".
