Pros

Awesome place to be working for as a college student as mentioned. SoCal TPR is different than most other TPR places, with a fairly laid-back employee setting allowing for flexible part-time hours ideal for somebody still in school. Applying was easy, the real interview is training for courses where, especially for SAT I, they are pretty hard about doing teachbacks making sure that the quality of your teaching skills are up to par. It's always very satisfying to hear back from kids who tell you that you got them into college. Pay can't be beat also for the work being done.

Cons

Management definitely plays favorites, a you scratch my back I'll scratch yours sort of thing. Have to plan out hours way in advance to make sure that your current schedule won't conflict and teaching classes is a sort of first come, first serve type deal. Not too much room for advancement unless you looking to start working full time as more than a teacher.

Pros

The strategies and course content are great. Jealous of these students! All the materials are already provided to the instructors and you have the flexibility to bid for courses that fit your schedule. Very supportive admin team.

Cons

Wouldn't rely on this as main income as schedules/course biddings are not guaranteed. But I have never bid with full schedule availability so I can't say for sure.
