Usual part-time or on-call work - English Educator ESLA Employee Review

Management is supportive, and it's not just a Visa mill. You're very much expected to help your students learn.

The pay will never be great and there's no real headroom to move up. It's a stepping stone, not a career.

Nice staff co-workers are pleasant diverse student body fun and interesting classes help always available coffee and bagels during the bi-quarterly staff meetings The amount of work instructors are required to do for the pay is fair (generally at least $20 per hour)

They claim to give raises to the instructors, but never or very seldom do. There is frequently little or no opportunity to move up unless you want to work extra for free No benefits or incentives No paid jury duty No paid holidays or vacation time Student-teacher reviews can prevent a good, hardworking teacher, who is genuinely trying to make a good impact and give students a good education, from getting a raise. If a student complains about a teacher because they forced the student to get off their cell phone and pay attention, or wouldn't let the student to come back into class after they were kicked out for the hour, the office staff won't back you up.
