Pros

Working with the kids at Kumon was fun. The supervisor gave guidelines but allowed the employees to exercise judgment as well. The hours were very good and could be adjusted.

Cons

The constant grading work was very tedious. The pay was not very good compared to other opportunities. The curriculum is very rigid and is not tailored to customization.

Pros

Contributing to an educational environment, work didn't require any prior experience.

Cons

Management consistently took in more kids than the employees had capacity for, which lead to a lot of crunch for what should have been a straightforward task. The amount of work we were required to do did not scale with the $8 an hour I was receiving.
