Pros

Fine place to learn what a toxic work environment looks like.

Cons

Inexperienced school administration is bloated, with extreme nepotism and favoritism of mother, daughter, and friends in positions of authority. It is amazing that they have not been sued over this. Teachers are expendable, students and families are considered nothing more than $$.

Tilden Preparatory Response

Thank you for your review. The average number of years of experience in our upper administration is over 20 years, and Tilden's mission is our passion. We hire administrators and teachers who love helping students reengage with learning, build confidence and succeed in learning how they learn best. We're sorry Tilden wasn't a good fit for you.

Pros

Amazing co-workers, admin who cares, and lots of resources. 1:1 instruction has lots of benefits for the student and is fun and challenging for the instructor.

Cons

There are a few cons I can think of some teachers like flexible hours but this is also a nice perk when you have other projects you are working on or are tutoring in the evening like I am.

Pros

Lots of different teaching assignments. Breadth of material keeps it interesting. Almost all students are easy to work with and real teaching. Good way to get into teaching without a credential.

Cons

Pay rate is low. Not as many holidays as regular teachers. Must work summer to make an OK income.
