Blog 3: Interview Preparation

1. Who do you plan to interview? Why?

I plan on interviewing the owner of the day care center I volunteered at over the summer. She is actually my aunt and her name is Maria Castaneda. She has owned that day care for quite a few years now, so I feel she has a lot of experience that will help me in answering a few questions about my topic, and she might even be able to give me different resources. It will also make it easier for me to get a better ground in how to interview someone, because since she is a family member, it'll be easier to speak more casually and comfortably with her.

2. You have to ask five questions. What additional questions do you plan to ask?

Along with the given five questions, I would like to ask her exactly how she decided to become a child care provider and the steps she had to take in order to become what she is today. Also, what special classes did she have to take to prepare herself? What are the best ways to have the children learn while still having fun? What are the basic need-to-knows of child care?
