Pros

the one-to-one teacher-student dynamic is effective, The administrators are supportive and the environment is basically pretty positive.

Cons

Hard to make a liveable wage, students can be dropped from your schedule with no notices or valid reasons, which negatively impacts your take-home pay.

Thank you for your feedback! We agree that the on-to-one teacher-student dynamic is extremely effective to help students reengage with learning, develop study skills and build up their confidence. Thank you for giving a nod to your Tilden administrators, they work hard to support all teachers and it means a lot to them to receive your positive feedback. We have worked hard to support income stability including instituting payment during student withdrawals. While Tilden does pay by the hour, our recent survey showed that teachers with full availability this past year were paid an average 36.9 hours per week including all 52 weeks of the year.

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.
