Not for the money - Fellow SAGA Education Employee Review

Thank you for the feedback. We appreciate your feedback, and are grateful that you were able to make in impact in your students' lives. Also, that you found the opportunity to be of value for self-improvement and your future. We recognize this work and the workload can be very challenging especially if expectations are not clear. There is never a dull moment working in public schools, so while we make every attempt to describe the job details exactly, there are several changes that occur during the year that are beyond site control. We encourage applicants to connect with several current and/or alumni Fellows to get a better understanding of the day-to-day expectations. One of our priorities this year was to improve our lesson plans and training processses to ensure appropriate math skills are being developed. We recognize that math is a tough subject, not only for our students, but for our candidates who choose to dedicate a year to supporting them. We do our best to highlight in our promotional material and throughout the recruitment process expectations surrounding math ability and the support we can provide. Our hiring process includes a math assessment, and we've recently incorporated Site Directors into the process of screening tutorials to better identify math ability against how we can realistically support. We aim to provide coaching to candidates who are passionate about the work, but may need a bit of support. We are in the business to serve and help foster improvement for all.
