Pengalaman Temuduga Pegawai Perkhidmatan Pendidikan (Guru) MARA
Assalamualaikum and hi everyone,
As promised, so today i am going to share my experience went to MARA Assessment Centre for interview. I apply to become Mathematics teacher and the interview was held on 26th February. More than 100 people came for the interview. It is a one day interview (just like a boot camp) where all the candidate has to go through all 4 assessment on the same day.
Assessment 1 - Psychometric Test
The candidate was put into a group of two. some go for the fitness test first and the othe half will do the psychometric test first. I was put in the second group. So, we will have to do a Psychometric Test first. Unlike previous year where the test hold on different day and online, this year the Psychometric Test is held on the same day and be done manually. We are given a paper to manually answer all the question given. There are about 160 question to be answer in 40 minutes. The test is to actually analyse ourselves, whether we a re qualify to become a teacher.
Assessment 2 - Fitness Test
typical bleep test. The instructor said that we have to finish at least level 4 to get a high mark. But i dont event reach level 3. I hope they are lenient in that area.
Assessment 3 - Interview
Five of us were put in a group and there are 3 panel in the room. We are given turn to answer the question. No need to rush because everyone will get their turn. In our room, we don't get any question about MARA and MRSM. Instead, we get a lot of question about maths and about the good values of teacher. We also given some real life situation that possibly can happen in school and how to act when it happen.
Assessment 4 - Mock Teaching + Public Speaking
So this year they decided to add one more test. Public Speaking. We were given one minute to prepare ourselves and 5 minutes to speak. The topic is given by voting. There are 5 topic to be choose. I got 'True Wisdom Comes from Experience'.
These are some other topics that other has been asked
1. What do you love to do during leisure time other than teaching as your passion?
2. You as a are Prime Minister, ..............
3. 'Intelligence is not enough'
4. Tell us about MARA
5. 'Credit card'
6. Best lessons you've learned in your life
7. How your students will be is based on the way you live in.
8. Tell us about yourself
9. Coronavirus
10. How to create a positive environment in class?
11. MCQ Test and ESSAY Test, which one is better?
12. Mara in 50 years
13. Real life doesn't occurs in the classroom
14. giving is good
15. Education makes us happier
16. 'Drunk drivers should be punished serevely.'
17. Society before myself
18. If I ruled the world
19. Manner matters
20.school uniforms are good
21. Children learn what they live with.
22. True wisdom comes from experience
23. Are We, Malaysians, stuck with third world mentality?
For the mock teaching, we were given 10 minutes to teach whatever we prepare beforehand. They are two panel will be judging us as we teach. No other audience were present inside the class.
To be honest, I really hope I get this job. It has always been my dream to become a teacher. I hope they will send me to any place around KL and Selangor. I really hope so. Please pray for me okay everyone!
