Jax’s Positive Classroom Experience – Interview Prompt

Jax Neubert lives to see the days that his professor cancels class.

After very little sleep the night before, Jax was not excited to be attending his classes. Hopping out of the hay and getting on his way, thinking it was just another day at Morningside University. His first class of the day, criminal justice. He knew an exam was coming up on Friday and that class would be a breeze.

All hopes held high, Jax was wishing he was back in bed. Instead, sitting in class, waiting for the professor to get on with his schedule. The professor began class by asking a series of questions. Jax described these next few minutes as “exhilarating.”

Jax said the professor asked the class, “Who wants to study the study guide?” No one responded.

“Who needs to go over the book?” The professor asked. Again, no one responded, Jax said.

“Who wants to go the f— home?” Everyone came to life and raised their hands. The professor let the class leave five minutes into class.

Jax was grateful for this classroom experience, “I was tired because I had to wake up at 5am… it made my day.” He was able to go back to his dorm room and take a nap.

    Remove yourself from the story, Ben.

    As with the other stories, summarize the interview and get it in the lead. Then build on it:
