Pros

I am in school to become a math teacher and it's a great part time job. I work about 9 hours a week. It varies from a few kids to an overwhelming amount of kids. The pay isn't too bad, but I'm in it more for the experience. As long as you're decent at math, it's a pretty easy job and most of the kids are adorable.

Cons

You can't survive with this being your only job. It doesn't pay enough to fully support yourself and you probably won't get a whole lot of hours. Since children can come in at any time without making an appointment, you can have times where each tutor is responsible for well over 5 kids. Also, there's not a lot of room for advancement.

Pros

You get to know the students well and it's fun to talk to them and teach them sometimes. Hours and scheduling is fairly flexible.

Cons

Instructor sometimes treats you as one of the children. Pay is terrible for a math tutor. At my location, we are short of tutors and the director has signed up a ton of students. So we have basically become a daycare where we can't even teach the students anymore due to the excessive amounts of children to keep track of.

Pros

Very casual work environment. The Mathnasium curriculum is great...helps the kids overcome some of their math gaps (if they do the prescriptives). Kids are allowed to work on homework too but they also must do their Mathnasium prescriptives. Best part is seeing some of the kids say that they got a very good grade on a math test! Instructors at Mathnasium are great!

Cons

Pay is low, but good for college kids trying to earn some extra money. Two weeks before final exams, there is a surge of students.
