Low pay for TAs, and the Franchisee (Owner) charges a lot for the tutitions. Parents also have to grade and return their children's worksheets weekly. They also charge additional for answer keys if you borrow them at home.

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.
