Not a Great Job for People Interested in Teaching
Pros
The job is very formulaic so you don't need to be particularly adaptable. It could be a good job for high school students or undergraduates who needs little extra cash, and no one else
Cons
The Mathnasium methods are extremely flawed. Rather than promoting intrinsic interest in math, the centers offer Chuck E Cheese style prizes to students. This reinforces the idea that math is inherent difficult and painful. There is no repetition of lessons. Students are assumed to have learned something after they complete the lesson on it. Of course in reality, they tend to forget. There is no deviation from the prescribed company learning plans. The job does not transfer well or have opportunities for upward growth. The pay is abysmal for anyone other than a high school student or maybe an undergraduate.
