Pros
I have been working at KSL for 2 years, and it is a genuinely fun place to work. No day is the same, and I love that we get to explore fun questions alongside our students. Classes are structured to facilitate a fun and engaging environment for students. KSL is unlike any other option available to students, and you can feel that the moment you walk into a KSL. Kids are so curious and we get to help them connect with that curiosity. I have worked in museums, traditional classrooms, and even other after school programs, and no place has felt like KSL. Kids, parents and teachers LOVE being here. Staff is offered countless opportunities on a weekly basis to learn best teaching and leadership practices and also allow us to connect and collaborate with teachers and other staff members across all of the centers. KSL is growing quickly so there is lots of opportunity for teachers to be a part of the growth. KSL Leadership cares deeply about their employees and listens to concerns we have in regards to making improvements. They want us to be the best teachers in the world offering the most engaging hands-on classes ever, and have developed the training and curriculum to back it up.
Cons
-It is not easy work and requires teachers, assistants, and front desk staff to be very adaptable, but we are changing kid’s lives and their perspectives, definitely not the right fit for someone just looking for any job. -There are some growing pains and learning curves as new systems come into place to allow for new centers, but in the long run these systems are necessary to allow for efficiency at volume.
