Pros

Potential to earn a lot of money.

Cons

- Poor curriculum created by district office (created in 6 weeks and full of missing resources and spelling errors). - Disorganized district mandates (Some mandates are not even possible due to a miscalculation of days/hours it takes to implement.) For example- each student needs to complete 3 hours a week of a certain computer program, but you only have 5 computers for 25 children. - Lack of resources (You have to print and copy all of your resources, but you're only given one stack of paper for the whole 6 weeks. Depending on the school, you have to also print and copy your own reading materials, too.)
