Pros
Being able to see fast growth in students and develop relationships with them.
Cons
Terrible pay. You’re expected to have a college degree but you get paid what dishwashers make. Everyone seems so forcibly fake it’s uncomfortable. No opportunities for the staff to get to know each other. If a new teacher is hired, nobody asks him/her anything about their life or background. You have to watch the clock like a hawk and clock in/out at the exact minute. No clocking in a little early or a little late. You only get 5 minutes to finish notes from the last student and get all your supplies ready for the next student. You’re not allowed to go outside the script and when you offer new teaching suggestions, they’re usually met with “Oh thank you but we really can’t do that because blah blah blah…” even when the parent is specifically asking for it because their child is finding success with your new method. You are expected to be at the center in person (no working from home unless you’re sick) — even on days when ALL of your students are online.
