Pros
Alright experience if you want to teach eventually, but that is the only reason you would want to work here
Cons
Charge students ridiculous prices, and give tutors the tiniest fraction. Ex: $50/student, 3 students/ tutor; Sylvan makes $150, tutor gets $15 They would cancel shifts the same day. You make plans around your work schedule only to have work cancelled 3 hours before your start. They accept students even if they don't have a tutor qualified to help them. I was hired for a science tutoring position and several of my students were paying for and attending sessions for weeks before I got there, without anyone that could really help them.
