You Can Make More Money Elsewhere - Anonymous employee C2 Education Employee Review

I will be the first to say that I had no business working here. This company was/is so determined to churn a profit that they will hire almost anyone as a tutor. I was given almost no training whatsoever for my position. What makes it worse is that I was being placed with students with special needs and learning disabilities- an area where I was not qualified to work in any way. You get lured in with the $20/hour promises, but it's really just as deceptive as a teaser rate on a mortgage (i.e. it's not as good as it seems). $20 an hour will not pay the bills if the center director doesn't like you and doesn't give you enough hours. You only get $10 an hour if you aren't working with students. It's also disheartening to work weekends and late nights during the week (the only times you can really tutor kids since they aren't in school). On top of that, the 3:1 teaching ratio makes it difficult for students to get the help they need. It is unreasonable to ask one person to successfully monitor and teach three children at three different age and learning levels. This is all to say that parents are paying WAY more than $20 an hour for their children to be working with someone who may or may not really be qualified. The truly talented and qualified tutors are also losing out because they have a lack of incentive. Plenty of other companies have higher hourly rates. For those who want or need to improve, there is no help or guidance from management. Overall, the culture is not motivating. I also dealt with sexual harassment but I didn't bother reporting it because I knew I was leaving. Parents and students lose out because they don't really know what they're signing up for and are getting roped in to nonrefundable contracts.
