Pros

-Flexible hours -Assignments are always available -Make your own schedule -Only required to work 2 days a week -Kokua has your back -Very understanding -Lots of downtime to do things like study, read, etc -Lots of practice hours if you're getting a teaching certification -No micro managing -If you stay on the same assignment for 15 days or more pay goes up to $90 a day

Cons

-Dealing with students that have no respect for a temp. teacher (not kokua's fault) -Not so nice teachers -Schools not having a real disciplining system -If you get sick, it's a little hard to get out of an assignment you've already committed to but that's easy to pick around
