Pros

Flexible extra income around traditional school hours. Enjoy helping students succeed.

Cons

Rate of pay is very low for a tutor. Very difficult to give adequate support to multiple students. Expensive for families- profits not filtered to the teachers who do the daily interactions with the students

Pros

I enjoyed the work I did do. Working with the children and helping with teachers was fun and I got to socialize quite often with staff and students.

Cons

I was fired for missing one shift because my mother ended up in an accident. I did not get to explain myself for missing said shift and was told to think about my actions for 4 days before being let go. Extremely unprofessional.
