Pros

I worked there for almost a year. I earned enough to pay the bills plus a little extra. Teaching the younger kids was fun and I felt like I was making a difference some days.

Cons

Most days I was only there to "babysit." I sat at a desk with my only task being to make sure the kids finished busy work. I would go home feeling unfulfilled. I also did not receive the training they were required to give me even after I requested a training session as I was having trouble. The most they did to train me was email me "tips" like "Convince students to clean the classroom by telling them one piece of trash is the 'prize trash' and if they throw the special 'prize trash' away they will receive a reward." Not exactly the help I was hoping for.
