Pros

The only pro is the kids. They are fun and vibrant and although they're lack of listening can get rather frustrating, they are worth the effort.

Cons

Star is a very misleading company. They will provide the resources you need for your lessons, but besides that they do not provide much training, and by much I mean none at all, specifically for teachers developing curriculum and lesson plans. They are flawed in that there are some site supervisors who are very unfit and unprofessional. Coordinators and upper management are extremely gossipy, and rather than creating a healthy atmosphere for growth and productivity, make it feel very uncomfortable to ask for help and ridiculed particular staff and showed favoritism to others. There was no real healthy relationships among staff and supervisor because of the unprofessional and even two-faced environment. (If you come to certain supervisors in confidence, expect for parents and other staff to know all of your business) If you make a mstake, possibly even the same mistake that one of the more favored staff members make, you will be fired on a whim, because you are indisposable. Don't let the idea of intolerance fool you. The company as a whole has lots of holes and there is something not quite right about it. Do not work here find something else that can better fulfill your needs and help you keep your sanity,

Pros

Other teachers are great. Thats literally the only positive thing to say.

Cons

Terrible lead teachers. They hire people with absolutely no skill or knowledge in the subjects they are supposed to teach. Don’t pay nearly enough and have very limited hours available. Expect you to drive to schools far away and will not pay for gas/mileage. Expect you to have full availability whenever they want you and get upset when you are not available at their beck and call.
