Pros
Your co-workers are passionate about education inequality and the kids you tutor and work with are great. No complaints there. The social mission is inspiring but that's where the pros end.
Cons
Where do I begin? Management is completely out of touch with the tutoring corps. Management is condescending and is more concerned about the stats and never knows what's going on at the tutoring level. Training is a joke which consists of silly role play. The math materials they give you for tutoring sessions are full of errors and typos which doubles the amount of work you need to do as a tutor. Every night I would have to spend hours double checking practice problems. The healthcare is problematic to say the least, the deductible is $2000 on top of the premium which I can't understand how someone making minimum wage can afford. People are constantly leaving and being brought on which creates a chaotic environment for everybody and affects morale. I decided to tough it out through the school year I couldn't bear to see my students left out without a tutor for the regents. Stay away from this organization; there are many great charter schools that will pay you a competitive salary as an associate instructor and offer much more intense training and career mobility if you really want a career in education.
