Pros

Since starting I have had a full schedule

Cons

If a student is absent from a lesson this will affect your bonus even though there is nothing you can do about it. When raising a ticket during a class for whatever reason the support is extremely slow to respond and often none responsive. By the time they are asking what the issue is if at all, the class is finished so it's completely redundant. There have been system errors which I have been blamed for such as late feedback for a class I was substituting for that never appeared, late entry to the classroom even though both the portal and my laptop showed that I was there on time, and pop ups telling me that I am using wifi when it was switched off and the ethernet cable was plugged in. They don't take any responsibility for this and it seems to me to be their way of getting out of paying bonuses etc.

Pros

1) most of the students were very interested in learning 2) parents were very involved in supporting their children to be successful in their lessons 3) parents read the feedback I wrote on their child's progress and were open to suggestions I made to enhance their child's learning 4) The curriculum was from National Geographic and was very interesting for the students and myself 5) It was easy for me to do scaffolding from the lessons to enhance what the students were learning 6) I was able to use my creativity to make the classes more fun for the students 7) The students were generally very smart and well mannered 8) The SAYABC management showed appreciation for the extra effort I made to help the students

Cons

1) because of time zone differences and language barriers it was sometimes hard to get timely support for technical issues and and student behavioral issues (as an example I had a student who once came to class without pants or underwear) 2) because of the time zone differences I sometimes got important emails from the Management at times during my regular sleeping hours.
