    Flexible and low stressful job

    May 27, 2023 - Teaching Assistant in Dallas, TX
    Recommend
    CEO Approval
    Business Outlook

    Pros

    For a teaching assistant, it is a relatively a low stress position. TA's don't have to manage curriculum, enter grades, or teach the entire floor. TA's get to work with students one-on-one and be their cheering coach and personal tutor.

    Cons

    Low pay. While everyone else jobs winds down at the end of each grading period, this is when the job of a TA is most crucial to help struggling students. Jobs over the summer are never guaranteed and people that work in this position are often underappreciated for the support that is given.

    Great system ,

    May 1, 2023 - 8th Grade Science Teacher in Dallas, TX
    Recommend
    CEO Approval
    Business Outlook

    Pros

    Starting salary was great, and they provided a 2k bonus if you taught science or math

    Cons

    Some of the schools are considered premier charter schools in the dallas metroplex, so students can be highly motivated. However, at the campus that I taught at, the students always had consistent behavioral issues that prevented effective teaching.

    RED FLAGS OF THE EDUCATION WORLD

    Apr 3, 2023 - Teacher in Dallas, TX
    Recommend
    CEO Approval
    Business Outlook

    Pros

    The pay is decent. Colleagues are aware of the BS.

    Cons

    The pay is decent until they pack 3 or 4 job titles on top of you. Everybody rolls their eyes at CMO we all know they have a nothing burger of a job. They commute 30 mins+ to campuses then take a 1hour+ lunch. As an educator I have 25 mins. I can't wait for AI to take over middle management. Texas Education is a joke. Uplift Education is a circus.

    It could be worse but it could be a whole lot better.

    Mar 16, 2023 - English Teacher in Dallas, TX
    Recommend
    CEO Approval
    Business Outlook

    Pros

    At the school I worked at, my fellow teachers were lovely to work with! I made lifelong friends there. The scholars were also fun to be around (I taught upper class scholars though).

    Cons

    There was always some new gimmick they were trying to implement for the sake of the children. Everything was one size fits all and if you know anything about education, that’s simply ineffective. I think if they took the time to understand the scholars at each individual school, they would be able to make a larger impact. While that would take a lot of time and resources, it would be worth it in the end compared to receiving mediocre results and or minimal improvement every year.
