Minpunten
Other than this being hell on Earth, it’s a fantastic position if you’re a glutton for punishment, passive aggressive management, and a hostile work environment. Not disgruntled, this is more cautionary than anything for potential applicants: If you take this position as a tutor, know that: 1) You will not only be a tutor, but you’ll also be expected to be a lunch lady, maid, office assistant, babysitter, behavioral analyst, scapegoat, and all around punching bag. For 14 dollars an hour. They’ll also ask you to take on other duties without any raise in pay. 2) Your reward for doing a good job will be a Kudos card. Also expect to be observed and critiqued as you are trying to teach your students at least 50% of the time. You as a tutor will be critiqued more than any student will. 3) You will know the kids better than anyone. They will become part of your life. Management sees them as dollar signs and sees you as disposable. 4) Management assumes ZERO responsibility for any internal problems. You will be overworked and underpaid. Even if you love working with the kids, this organization makes zero effort to listen to employee concerns. 5) Your marching orders will come from condescending people who give you zero direction. Expect to know everything about new lesson plans, new reward systems, or anything significant about a student in massive unorganized folders. Didn’t get to all of it during your 5 minute break? Don’t worry. Someone will interrupt your session and belittle you in front of your student to make sure you get it right next time. 6) Your weekly hourly meetings will go like this: 1) (55minutes) “All The Things We Never Told You That You Need To Be Doing” and 2) (5 minutes) Updates on the KIDS
