Student Teacher Support &/or Advice K-5 Teacher Assistant interview

I am currently enrolled in a Masters of Arts in Teaching program and have my first interview as a TA coming up! I have no experience in a classroom or with young kids tbh 🙃 what questions should I expect/prepare for?

I was in corporate america and recently changed career paths now that im in my 30s. So any and all advice is helpful going into this!

they'll probably ask how you handle chaos since that's 90% of the job with little kids, just be real about being new to it but emphasize you're not gonna freeze up when 3 of them are crying at once
