Decent School, Lack of structure

Business Outlook

Pros

Great philosophy, very flexible, and easy going. They allow you to completely be independent of any rules for the most part. You can completely customize your approach to teaching however you want aside from the general trend of what languages follow, unless a student shows specific interests.

Cons

Due to lack of structure, being a coach is often times difficult with respect to coming up with project ideas and. A minimum of 8 - 10 developed lesson plans in place for the most common languages would be extremely helpful.

The World Needs The Coder School

Business Outlook

Pros

As a former schoolteacher, I applaud The Coder School for not waiting for schools to catch up with the times and teach young people to code. As a Code Coach you have pretty much total freedom in what projects you work on with students. But students/parents have total freedom to switch to another coach, so you'd better do something fun, interesting and useful. Sometimes I'd do games, sometimes solving puzzles, and sometimes cloning an artsy sketch I found on Twitter.

Cons

Don't expect it to be a career, it's a part-time job (but one I find extremely satisfying). There's no deal-breaking problems: just sometimes a kid is unpleasantly surprised at how much work it is to code something he or she thought would be easy. Most coders find that inspiring but some kids are used to swiping their iPads and won't push themselves.
