Pros

Students are fun to work with and can be very engaging if they are paying attention. Director was very forgiving with absent days (for high schoolers)

Cons

At busy times, center was understaffed, instructors sometimes got 5-6 kids per instructor (at base pay without tax deduction, that's only about $1.60 per kid per hour!).

Pros

Flexible hours that I could choose, nice working space. My boss was nice and very reasonable. Pay was decent after I completed some certifications. When the teaching was effective it was pretty rewarding and it can be fun to talk to the kids.

Cons

It was honestly a very tiring job. The kids can get really rowdy and difficult to manage, especially if you have to teach three at the same time. Management required us to use tablets and a finicky platform for worksheets that was not helpful and forced me to further split my attention.
