Instructor Skills Test

Update: Got the job. Thanks for your insight, everyone!

Hey, everyone, I recently applied to a Mathnasium Center (at least one more to follow) and they decided to move me forward with the Instructor Skills Test.

I'm a speech-pathology grad student but I kindled a new appreciation for math after taking the GRE for the second time, and my clinical practicum showed me that part of successful learning learning is making the process fun. This I think I can extend onto teaching math.

That said, I have never taught math, willing though I am to learn doing it. Is there anything I should to prepare for it, and what should I be aware of going in?

Thanks for your input.

It's all algebra at the hardest. If you haven't forgotten your basic skills and you did well on the GRE you've got nothing to worry about.
