Great colleagues, but poor management and low pay. Can’t recommend

After school teacher

Recommend

CEO approval

Business outlook

Pros

Other teachers are great. Thats literally the only positive thing to say.

Cons

Terrible lead teachers. They hire people with absolutely no skill or knowledge in the subjects they are supposed to teach. Don’t pay nearly enough and have very limited hours available. Expect you to drive to schools far away and will not pay for gas/mileage. Expect you to have full availability whenever they want you and get upset when you are not available at their beck and call.

Enjoyable work with kids, but unpaid hours are frustrating

Robotics instructor

Recommend

CEO approval

Business outlook

Pros

Working with the schools and the children at some places was a joy. And teaching them to use the equipment was always fun.

Cons

Only paid while actually teaching, they did not pay for going or coming or dismantling the equipment for the next lesson. That means several unpaid hours of work and commute time.
