Make a Difference for Students and Achieve Work Life Balance With a Great Company - Instructor Spring Academy Employee Review

Spring Academy's supervisors are kind, supportive, and easy to work with. They compensate their employees to meetings, phone calls, and drive time. They specifically handle the bulk of school and parent communication, leaving teachers stress-free and able to focus on the students. There is flexibility for teachers to create curriculum around each child's specific goals.

One to one instructors will always be a part time position, which might not be the best financial situation for some teachers. Schedules often fill up, but sometimes a teacher's schedule is at the mercy of the district/school assessments being completed and approved. So there might be some time with an uneven work day/week while waiting.

I have been working at Spring Academy for about a year. Throughout that time, I could not be happier with the supportive staff, flexible hours, meaningful work with students, and opportunities to grow and learn more about individualized, one-to-one instruction. Rob has created a welcoming work environment that begins as you walk through the door on the very first day of work. As a teacher who is also a full-time graduate student, the staff at Spring Academy is always flexible and accommodating with my complex class schedule. I never have to worry about missing a day of class or a session with any of my students due to SA’s diligent work in making sure everyone's needs are met. The professional development offered at Spring Academy is applicable, collaborative, and meaningful to the work we do everyday with students. All of the teachers who work at Spring Academy are passionate, empathetic educators who always keep students and families at the forefront of their work. Spring Academy offers a unique opportunity to work with students in an individualized setting to provide explicit, individualized instruction. As educators, we have the opportunity to tailor lessons to students’ unique learning styles and interests. I believe that a teacher’s role should be to support students in understanding, celebrating and utilizing their strengths. At Spring Academy, I truly believe that each teacher has the opportunity to accomplish this.

I cannot think of any particular cons. The staff is supportive, hours are flexible, and the work is challenging and meaningful.
