Business outlook
Pros
The work of the company is rewarding, and you know you're making a difference. Also, participating in the different trainings and adjusting to the expectations of the company is guaranteed you make you grow as a person.
Cons
The program was extremely disorganized on a day by day basis, the expectations for fellows were extremely high, and the pay was very low. While I generally enjoyed the leadership members I met, it is clear that the company exploits those who care without much support. I had to immediately enroll in food stamps to survive this role financially. If you have options to teach with an actual school district, I would highly recommend that.
