在北京王府中学应聘老师是一种怎么样的体验

什么垃圾学校，自己做贼心虚，我敢发誓我说的每一句话没有半句是假话，你敢么？就这种败类还敢办学？就算我说的是假话，楼下大家的评论怎么都一样？恶意诽谤你司? 对不起，你们这种弄虚作假，流氓作风的垃圾还真不用我诽谤...
在北京王府中学应聘老师是一种怎么样的体验
————————————————————————————————————
我没在王府读过书，但前段时间来这边应聘过，想谈谈自己的感受。
先说说自己的背景：北美某藤校3年半毕业，学的是工科。目前在美国前2的银行做分析员，高中在新加坡就读，A-level 7 科全优， SAT1 2260， SAT2 2400.
我是在我们学校的校园招聘网上看到王府招聘的信息的，然后直接投简历给北美这边，由北美这边直接递交给国内的HR. HR加了我Skype，约好聊。然后第一次她就迟到了半小时，聊的很okay（毕竟背景还是过硬的，而且在大学也当过助教并且有过非常多的家教经验），第一轮顺风顺水的过了，不过这个以后有一个细节，HR 让我填了一个表，上面有自己目前的薪金，和有没有教师资格证，我都如实回答了。还要了我目前雇主的推荐信。
然后搞笑的事情就来了。我和HR先谈好教高中组数学，然后要求我录半个小时的视频试讲一下。（我非常理解教书行业需要试讲，所以没问题），给了我个统计的置信区间让我教，并且给了我材料。我还为此特地买了个白板，自认为讲的很好（自己学的就是统计）, 然后数学组也说教的不错。完了以后还问我能教什么，我说我还能教微积分，然后又让我录半个小时的微分方程的教学视频，说录完以后才能知道我到底教什么。我虽然觉得有点奇怪但还是做了，自认为讲的也不错。（后来数学组也承认我是一个好老师，叫HR把握住）。
过几天后这个奇葩的HR给我打电话说因为我6月底才能回国，数学组目前的空缺已经被补上了，然后又问我能不能教英文。其实我当时已经有点不爽了，因为我什么时候能回国当时已经谈过了，但是毕竟我还是很喜欢教学的工作的，于是就说没问题，完了以后她再次要求试讲，然后试讲的题如下：

Please present a lesson that illustrates the difference between the simple present and present perfect.
Writing
Please present a lesson on writing and developing a thesis statement for an argumentative essay.
Literature Reading
Please present a lesson based on the excerpt from The House on Mango Street provided below. How do you think you can use this material to help students improve in literature reading?
The House on Mango Street
We didn\u0026#39;t always live on Mango Street. Before that we lived on Loomis on the third floor, and before that we lived on Keeler. Before Keeler it was Paulina, and before that I can\u0026#39;t remember. But what I remember most is moving a lot. Each time it seemed there\u0026#39;d be one more of us. By the time we got to Mango Street we were six—Mama, Papa, Carlos, Kiki, my sister Nenny and me.
The house on Mango Street is ours, and we don\u0026#39;t have to pay rent to anybody, or share the yard with the people downstairs, or be careful not to make too much noise, and there isn\u0026#39;t a landlord banging on the ceiling with a broom. But even so, it\u0026#39;s not the house we\u0026#39;d thought we\u0026#39;d get.
We had to leave the flat on Loomis quick. The water pipes broke and the landlord wouldn\u0026#39;t fix them because the house was too old. We had to leave fast. We were using the washroom next door and carrying water over in empty milk gallons. That\u0026#39;s why Mama and Papa looked for a house, and that\u0026#39;s why we moved into the house on Mango Street, far away, on the other side of town.
They always told us that one day we would move into a house, a real house that would be ours for always so we wouldn\u0026#39;t have to move each year. And our house would have running water and pipes that worked. And inside it would have real stairs, not hallway stairs, but stairs inside like the houses on TV. And we\u0026#39;d have a basement and at least three washrooms so when we took a bath we wouldn\u0026#39;t have to tell everybody. Our house would be white with trees around it, a great big yard and grass growing without a fence. This was the house Papa talked about when he held a lottery ticket and this was the house Mama dreamed up in the stories she told us before we went to bed.
But the house on Mango Street is not the way they told it at all. It\u0026#39;s small and red with tight steps in front and windows so small you\u0026#39;d think they were holding their breath. Bricks are crumbling in places, and the front door is so swollen you have to push hard to get in. There is no front yard, only four little elms the city planted by the curb. Out back is a small garage for the car we don\u0026#39;t own yet and a small yard that looks smaller between the two buildings on either side. There are stairs in our house, but they\u0026#39;re ordinary hallway stairs, and the house has only one washroom. Everybody has to share a bedroom—Mama and Papa, Carlos and Kiki, me and Nenny.
Once when we were living on Loomis, a nun from my school passed by and saw me playing out front.
The laundromat downstairs had been boarded up because it had been robbed two days before and the owner had painted on the wood YES WE\u0026#39;RE OPEN so as not to lose business.
Where do you live? she asked.
There, I said pointing up to the third floor.
You live there? There. I had to look to where she pointed—the third floor, the paint peeling, wooden bars Papa had nailed on the windows so we wouldn\u0026#39;t fall out. You live there? The way she said it made me feel like nothing. There. I lived there. I nodded.
I knew then I had to have a house. A real house. One I could point to. But this isn\u0026#39;t it. The house on Mango Street isn\u0026#39;t it. For the time being, Mama says. Temporary, says Papa. But I know how those things go.
Verbal Communication
Please present a debate class using the topic below. Please note that the students are not so familiar with argumentation.
Doris and Roger have been misbehaving at school and disrupting the classroom. Even though they have been given warnings, their behavior does not improve. The school has told them and their parents that if they cannot follow the rules, they will be expelled. Expulsion is permanent and means that they can never come back to the school. They will have to be home-schooled or look for a school in another town. Should the school expel the misbehaving kids or should they allow these children to stay?
我除了第一题第二题看懂了以外第三题和第四题根本不知道在问什么。什么叫How do you think you can use this material to help students improve in literature reading? 最后一个题是让我准备表轮的论据还是干嘛？于是乎我把我的疑问发给了那个奇葩的HR， 奇葩的HR的回复就是把原题抄了一遍再发给了我。Okay， 那为了保险我选择了第二题，就是讲议论文嘛， 我选的题目是Is the pen mightier than the sword. 我的讲法是先给出一个引子，然后定义pen 和sword, 然后讲了2个论点，给了2个topic sentence并且例子。然后为了让整个论文更平衡给了反论点并且例子，最后给了结论。 最后我还让学生们拓展思维，对pen和sword重新赋予定义。因为这个题她给的没有一个固定的范围， 我只能照我的理解去讲，自认为对付高中那一套已经绰绰有余了。
录好视频发给HR，然后和她约了个时间。当天她又迟到了半个小时，一直让我“”等10分钟等10分钟”，最后接了电话以后她说她之前在开会。我呵呵了，所以只有她的时间宝贵别人的时间不宝贵是么。当然我没说什么。然后她就说了，英文组的回馈不理想。说1.我有一点点口音，同学们可能会挑剔 2. 我讲的内容不行。扪心自问，我虽然不是美国人但在美国呆了差不多5年我问过一般美国人都听不出我是外国人，虽然我也承认也可能是我确实带着一点口音， 但我绝对相信我的一点口音绝对不会影响任何教学质量（毕竟也在美国当过助教，如果我有问题的话怎么美国的学生咋不反馈）。要说内容的话，题目大家也看到了，完全是一个自由发挥的题目，更没有给context，不知道这是SAT论文还是A-level论文，完全就是按自己的理解。我把我的疑惑给奇葩的HR提出来了，HR 说我们这题对所有人都是一样的（什么奇葩逻辑，对所有人一样就说明这个题出的好？），我okay。
然后她又说让我回国以后再去学校谈。当时有就有点火了， 因为这明显就是吹毛求疵，而以我的背景也不可能缺这个offer，我当时就跟这个奇葩的HR说我已有其他的offer然后就挂电话了。 后来反省一下，发现很大一部分原因可能就是因为我填的薪金要求绝对超过了他们能负担的（不算年底奖金的话美国这边税前55万rmb）, 但HR又不能自己打脸说开不了这个价，只能吹毛求疵的给一堆理由。 可能是我国内的HR见的比较少，不确定这种颠三倒四的行为是不是常态，也可能是我太nice了， 对她这种行为一而再再而三妥协，不过这学校不专业化的作为让我对这个学校的教学质量产生了怀疑。后来看了下的帖子发现，我的这些个质疑不是unfounded. 发帖出来并没有想诋毁任何人的意思哈， 只是想把自己的经历写出来。
