      Run Away! - Special Education Teacher K12 Employee Review

      Pros

      Easier classroom management and way less bullying than at brick-and-mortar schools; can wear whatever you want from the waist down (jeans, shorts, flip-flops)

      Cons

      WAY OVERLOADED with number of students assigned to you (try at least 30-35 IEPs while also being in class and in meetings for the majority of the day); most sped teachers at FLCCA will tell you they work anywhere from 10-18 hrs PER DAY and 8 on weekends and are still drowning. Most of them beg for more time to help their students with special needs, yet the administration refuses to egg knowledge their need for more time and instead load them up with more students. So many great teachers special Ed and regular Ed have left this company due to being used and abused!

      Pros

      Great collaboration with highly professional colleagues who truly care about teaching and education. Work remotely.

      Cons

      Insufficient training for the many responsibilities of the position. Insufficient follow-up from the upper administration on said responsibilities. Workload increased to levels that made completion of said workload difficult (with putting in extra hours without added compensation) to basically impossible. Difficult to change roles (at least, in my position). Many additional hours away from the classroom, which greatly disrupted educational continuity.
