Pros

You get to help out kids who may be struggling in school and really make a difference in how they are doing in school.

Cons

You're not really helping out the kids who need help the most but those whose parents can pay the most money. Some of the parents are crazy.

Pros

Contributing to an educational environment, work didn't require any prior experience.

Cons

Management consistently took in more kids than the employees had capacity for, which lead to a lot of crunch for what should have been a straightforward task. The amount of work we were required to do did not scale with the $8 an hour I was receiving.
