Pros
-you get to meet lots of interesting people and maybe even make some friends -most students were nice
Cons
-misleading job description and need to act as a TOUR GUIDE (sometimes with big groups over 100 students), which wasn't mentioned in interviews -there is no practical training and you are being asked to lead a group of students on a historical tour. You need to figure it out yourself which means studying the history and planning out travel routes in an unfamiliar city, often times last minute -disorganized schedules and miscommunication: things changed and not updated in the system, unclear instructions etc. -unpaid time adds up: teachers are asked to pick the kids up, walk them places BEFORE your paid shift starts/or AFTER it ends -hours are not stable, like promised. Contract states 35-40 hours. Some weeks I only had 17 hours per week, others had 55 hours in one week. -need to pick students up in the airport, sometimes as late as 1:00 or 2:00 in the early morning It's difficult to determine if it was worth it.
