Pros

Materials for students worked very well. I felt that the education model used by the company is effective at teaching and helping students retain their knowledge. Rewarding experience overall. Hours are predictable; good for someone looking for a simple job on the side, or students.

Cons

Experience differs from center to center. One center I worked at was very streamlined, and I have virtually no complaints about it. However, the other center I worked at was very disorganized and work was often lost, leading to complaints from parents that were left with tutors to deal with, rather than management.

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.
