Pros

If you like to help kids and don't want to work full time, this will suit you. No lesson planning; already done for you.

Cons

The pay is so-so, $13/hr. at the time. Only Part Time work, therefore no benefits. You can't really count on a set schedule. You are expected to work the summers, which is fine. In my case, Director very arbitrary and inflexible when asking for a few weeks off to move.

Pros

I enjoyed the work I did do. Working with the children and helping with teachers was fun and I got to socialize quite often with staff and students.

Cons

I was fired for missing one shift because my mother ended up in an accident. I did not get to explain myself for missing said shift and was told to think about my actions for 4 days before being let go. Extremely unprofessional.
