Pros
If you want a meaningful job, with a measurable/tangible impact then you've found the right place. Reading Partners gets the community in the classroom and the one-on-one instruction makes a world of difference for students' self-esteem and reading abilities in most cases. It's not just a tutoring program; it is an achievement gap narrowing program.
Cons
I had never encountered such a manipulative work environment and I hope I never do again. The management has taken advantage of their ability to hire by hiring their friends. Even their data was manipulated. I don't understand how such self-serving people are still in an authoritative positions at an organization where that helps the community. My negative remarks reflect Reading Partners Tulsa and not Reading Partners as a whole.
