I was requested to provide a demonstration class for some job interviews. Could someone please give me some tips on what to prepare for the interview? I am new to China and ESL...

Do you have any education background?
Have you ever had a job with an interview before?
Do you have any teaching experience?
Did you receive a proper TESOL/TEFL type certificate?

If not, then why do you think you should/can just come to China and be a teacher? That's just my opinion.

Otherwise, if you're not willing to make a lesson to demonstrate your "abilities" then you can find material online all nicely setup for you to do without thinking.

Probably, because countless Chinese schools don't care an iota about the things that you've listed, and, instead, only require somebody foreign, with a pulse, who can speak passable English. I think that the opinion of those doing the hiring in China, tops your opinion. Laughing
