Pros

A great community that provides tons of support throughout the year. You'll learn a ton about our planet, teaching, and teamwork.

Cons

It can be exhausting at times, especially when you have overtime shifts, but everyone there helps each other out as much as possible to make it through the week.

Pros

You get to live in a beautiful area with like minded young people. You get to truly make a difference in the live's of children and watch them enjoy the great outdoors. The curriculum is interesting and very well organized - you will definitely make lifelong friends. Room and board is provided as are ways to "level up" and increase your pay.

Cons

Teaching the same classes week after week can get redundant. Be prepared to work 24 hour shifts with enthusiasm.

Pros

Beautiful area. Nice people. School schedule means consistent weekends and holidays. You will learn a lot of behavior management skills. You will grow to appreciate how much other jobs don't overwork you.

Cons

The hours are ridiculous especially for how much they pay you. 10 hours to 18 hours a day depending on the shift, assuming you aren't asked to do more. Management seems to believe strongly in work for the sake of work. God forbid you get sick working long stressful hours working alone with 12-16 children. If someone calls out you may very well have to spend over 72 hours straight at work and be expected to be on top of everything the entire time, there are many weeks they will ask you to do this without anyone calling out.
