Sylvan Learning Centres of the Greater Toronto Area - Poor Place to Work at Best With Poor Ownership
Pros
There were no valuable pros in this role other than my own ability to offer the students my personal touch to teaching and development.
Cons
It is with regret that I must say that my experience working for Sylvan of Greater Toronto was nothing short of an experience I could have done without. The business practices that took place behind the scenes were nothing but poor. I only hope that this is a realization the people that own run and manage the organization of 11 centres. The overall morale of those I worked with, was poor at best. The time that was needed to dedicate to the role. was in no way properly compensated monetarily. And if a promise was made, it was rare that it was ever followed though by those that were to put forth the action. I am disappointed in my experience with the Sylvan of GTA, and can only request that those looking for employment with this group of Sylvan Learning Centres, to really give yourself more value to your worth, and look elsewhere - even Sylvan Learning Centres outside of the GTA, but it is highly recommended that the ones within Toronto proper, and just to the north and just to the west be exempt from your search for employment.
