Pros

Wonderful mission with proven results. It’s rewarding work, and all of the people I’ve worked with have been kind and care about the work they do.

Cons

Part-Time and seasonal, and it’s difficult to have any job growth. As the company has grown, things have gotten a bit over complicated and over HR’d. For example, they've changed things so that trainings and meetings are paid at a lower rate than the regular hourly wage, and that just feels icky.

The job -teaching kids how to read and watching them grow by leaps and bounds- is one of the most meaningful I've ever had.

Cons

The structure vastly overcomplicates everything.

Pros

Supportive staff, useful and clear training modules, effective literacy intervention for many students that focuses on 1:1 in person interaction.

Cons

Part-time, yearly changes to curriculum that makes you feel like you're often piloting something new, some teachers are very supportive of the program and others are less so
