I was asked about my background in education, what persuaded me to pursue teaching, and whether I had always wanted to work with middle school children. Aside from these questions I was asked whether education was something I could see myself staying in for a long time--this question is very important and it will come up due to the teacher shortage that the US is facing, so have an answer prepared.
