The Business Interview

The following interview it strictly confidential...

Good afternoon boys.  
Good afternoon Mr. Tait. 

We are halfway through our 3rd term of 2014 and getting towards thebusiness end. 
I know.You did a typo there. There's supposed to be a space between 'the' and 'business'.

In just over eight weeks our Yr 8s will begin their I.S. presentations.  Every minute counts...If you had to perform a 'stocktake' on your own Independent Studies where would you see yourself? 
I think that I'm doing really well, and I've done quite a few activities. Google says that you spelt 'stocktake' wrong.

What is the one single thing you could give yourself a 'pat on the back' for?  
The quality of the writing, probably. I also am proud of how I have loads of rhetoric questions that provoke the readers imagination and act as good 'hooks'.

What is the one single thing you cpuld give 'yourself a rocket' for?  
You did another typo.

What is your 'vision' for your presentation? 
I want it to be really fun and hook the audience in from the start. I know that Biomimicry could be a boring topic, so I intend to spruce it up a bit, and make it really engaging.  

If you had to swap topics (had to...) with another boy in 7/8T which topic would you want to study?  
Probably George's - the Catholic Inquisition. 

What is your ultimatte goal with your I.S. this year?
Probably to win, I guess... but mostly, it would be to make a booklet that I'm really proud of, and 'perform' a presentation that is really fun and different.

So, overall, just to do my best.

  1. Mr. T can really ruin a good interview with typos. And he's teaching US to pick up errors.
