Avantages
Helping students overcome barriers in math by motivating them with stars and a prize cabinet is so much fun. There are always toys and candy at work, which is a small perk to the job. Also we work hard to show students the fun of math. Theme weeks for extra stars, and making making a big difference in the student's future is very rewarding.
Inconvénients
I thought working for a "for-profit" style education would mean the pay is better. Mathnasium is a franchise which can cause a lot of overhead costs for the local owners. This equates to challenging pay and benefits because it's a small business overall. Also many ACD are given the responsibilities of Center Director but the pay does not equal the responsibility. I found the stress to be even worse than working for public schools sadly.
