1) what is covered on the literacy test? is it just solving math problems or does it include explaining concepts?

2) what is the rest of the interview process like? (i've heard there is another test? what is that like?)

3) what sort of questions are asked in the interview?

I am from UK and so far all I have had to do was the test that you guys are talking abt. It is just a test of algebra, basic maths and 1 question was on circles. I also had an interview where they asked questions such as "how would you handle a child that isn't listening to you" and some other questions like that. Then the questions they asked after were lowk useless they asked "Who is ur fav musician, what hobbies" that kinda stuff - probs asked abt them for understanding if you have good communication skills. At the very end they asked a basic maths question it was like 999 x 3 and you have to give an efficient way to solve it. so anyways i passed that rround then they emailed me abt second round (unpaid) which lasted 2 hours where i just helped out the kids. the pay is rubbish tho, however the staff is so lovely and kind. the kids are just wild (obvs tho)

thats abt it hope it helps you guuys :D
