Business outlook
Pros
I loved my corps year but it was HARD and I know a lot of people that struggled severely. You'll learn to work with teams of people you like and dont like, how to motivate students, get a real hard look at our education system and its successes and failures. It's a great way to see if you really want to work in Ed and in what capacity.
Cons
The program is well meaning but they are putting young people in schools and often hundreds of miles away from their support systems without a lot of support - financial, professional, or mental health. If you're already a well adjusted person with strong support at home and you go with the flow and get along with others you'll do well.
