Interview Questions

Your task is to interview a peer and present him/her to the class, sharing a little about the person so we can get to know each other better.  Below are suggested questions; you may use your own questions, and I encourage you to let your conversation lead you to additional questions.  I will randomly ask you to present your peer to the class on Wednesday and Friday next week.

Suggested Questions:

Name (person doing the interview):___________

Name (person being interviewed): ____________

• Where are you from?

• Do you play sports or participate in any extracurricular activities? What are they and how long have you been doing it?

• What type of movies, music, or books do you like? Give me some examples of your favorites.

• If you could go anywhere in the world, where would you go? Why?

• If you could meet anybody and sit down and hang out with them…Ask them questions…see what they are/or were really all about…who would you meet?

• If you could go witness any moment (or time period) in history, what would you want to see?

• What do you want to do after college? Where do you see yourself in five years? Ten years? Twenty years? What do you dream about accomplishing some day?

Welcome to Think Harder

Think Harder is a blog designed to be a fantastic resource for you, my English Composition students. Take a look around. Over in the sidebar you’ll see a list of resources that I have gathered, each of which will be useful to you throughout the semester and beyond. As students create their own blogs, they will be listed in the sidebar, too, making it easy to visit and comment on the writing of your peers.

I will use Think Harder as a repository for assignments, worksheets, and other information to make English Composition a fruitful class.

Here’s to a great semester!
