Pros
You work once a week during the homeschool’s weekly community day. You can tutor the students in your child’s group or be the tutor for a different age-level student group. Your younger children (3 1/2 years old or below) will be in the on-site nursery. All tutors are homeschooling parents and all the students in your tutoring group have their moms present to assist and watch you model the weekly memory work. The pay (check or cash) helps offset the modest annual tuition cost for having your children enrolled in Classical Conversations.
Cons
The free training provided the month or two before is helpful but can be overwhelming for those with little teaching experience or new to the C.C. program. However, there are MANY friendly moms to talk with in person or online to help support you as you prepare and begin tutoring. The learning curve is doable for any mom (or dad) as the best teacher is the parent and the tutor is a guide.
