Sample answer
How do you manage a disruptive student?
I start quietly and privately — a look, standing near their desk, or a calm word — so I don't turn it into a show for the class. If it continues, I talk with the student after the lesson to find out what's going on. One student kept interrupting because he finished work early, so I gave him an extension task and a helper role. The interruptions mostly stopped within a week.

Frequently asked questions
What are common teacher interview questions?
How do you manage a disruptive student? Describe a lesson that went really well. Why did it work? How do you support students with different ability levels in one class?
Can I practise for free?
Yes — one 3-question interview a day, no sign-up. The 7-day Interview Sprint ($9.90 once, no renewal) unlocks full interviews.
Should I memorise my answers?
No. Memorise the stories (situation, what you did, the result) and practise telling them out loud in different words. That sounds natural and survives follow-up questions.
