- To be mentally prepared for the interview, find an appropriate place and time for the interview, and make necessary arrangements (like pen, paper, recorder, etc.).
- To make the interviewee feel comfortable and relaxed by asking some casual questions at the beginning and get the best out of them.
- To know the common issues of international students while living away from home.
- To learn about the cultural stereotypes from their country.
- To try to understand how their language could be a barrier to communicate with other students in the American class.
- To know about their intention of studying in an American university.
- To know how and when did they learn English and how much it has improved as they are living right now with Native English speakers.
- To know if they had been a victim of racism and if it is, try to find the circumstances in which it took place.
- Finally, integrate all the information from the interview with what you have known from other sources like internet, books and media.

I like number 1, preparing mentally is the most important thing in an interview because there may be a language barrier and you have to be patient and take your time to understand what they want to say.
