Pros

The only reason to work at this Sylvan is the gratification I get from helping students over their learning hurdles. There is a sense of teamwork that starts with the co-managers and that is a plus.

Cons

The pay rate at my Sylvan is low- after3 years i am making $12 an hour. Sylvan's recent adaption of CAI had been poorly implemented, and that affects my overall job satisfaction. The lessons are repetitive. The lesson layouts don't appear to have designed by graphic professionals. Some exercises are poorly written. And, worst of all, there are too many content, calculation, and typographical errors. In short, the clients are not getting good value for the $50 per hour they are paying.

Pros

I enjoyed the work I did do. Working with the children and helping with teachers was fun and I got to socialize quite often with staff and students.

Cons

I was fired for missing one shift because my mother ended up in an accident. I did not get to explain myself for missing said shift and was told to think about my actions for 4 days before being let go. Extremely unprofessional.
