Pros
Possible to build rapport and get close with students due to one on one teaching. (cater to needs and interests) Some of the staff are friendly and helpful. Some independence with teaching higher level students.
Cons
Legal vacation days and government holidays were only honored after a teacher filed a labor complaint. Management often misinterprets/reinterprets or changes the contract at their convenience. Staff avoid direct problem-solving and instead send emails, often requesting weekend replies and delayed responses. 1984 Big Brother style monitoring (iykyk).... Constant surveillance through CCTV and audio recording devices in classrooms and offices. Unprofessional behavior from multiple staff. Heavy teaching load: up to 30 students (some days around 20) meaning a LOT of talking. Library role is disproportionately demanding compared to classroom roles. Classroom teachers read 5–10 books per level, while library teachers must read around 30+ per level (about 450 books), Breaks are fragmented into 10-minute intervals, making it nearly impossible to rest, eat, or leave the office. Feedback is generally ignored unless it supports management’s agenda. Managment heavily favors certain staff, and does not uphold standards equally. Administrative duties are excessive, including daily parent texts, a constant backlog of book reports, and ongoing score checking beyond the normal academy scope of work.
