Overall, a good place to work.

Pros

A good place to work as a student or part-time, with flexible hours available, and a better environment than other comparable workplaces with same pay level- i.e retail or food service. You will gain lots of work experience here.

Cons

The demands of the job are sometimes more than can be expected for a part-time position at this pay level.

Pros

Flexible hours that work well with having a different full-time job (mostly nights and weekends), a great system for raises based on students' ratings, a good system for moving people with good student ratings up to teacher trainers, etc., always receiving posts about full-time management jobs within Kaplan

Cons

It can sometimes be difficult to get enough hours if you only teach one test, the raises are based on how many students rate you as "excellent" while "good" does not count for anything

Pros

You are likely to make lots of smart friends working for Kaplan. Teaching courses is exciting and a lot of fun.

Cons

Teaching a lot of courses can be a little at times. For example, you may be asked to cover for other teachers at the last minute
