      Pros

      Good alternative for those with classroom burnout Provides some flexibility throughout the day

      Cons

      Profit driven company = high demand with unrealistic goals High teacher turnover due to low pay and poor benefits Teachers evaluated with standards intended for traditional, in-person classes- job can be high stress because it is very data/numbers driven
