Pluspunten

The absolute best thing about this job was the students - U.S. Army Linguists who had been trained at DLI or were native speakers. Also, other than basic guidelines of what to teach or the goal for a specific course, there was nearly complete autonomy and little oversight so I could teach what I wanted. This allowed me to consult directly with the students to tailor learning to their needs.

Minpunten

Ft. Hood - Typical military base with all the bureaucracy that goes along with it. Also I had a 55 mile commute. Also the facilities there were inadequate and presented numerous challenges. The benefits offered through Catapult were not affordable and I had to get a policy through the AHCA Marketplace.

Pluspunten

My supervisor was supportive, attentive, and respectful. Her weekly meetings were helpful, and supplies were ordered promptly.

Minpunten

Our funding was abruptly cut by the government. I was given no warning. All communications ceased from that day.

Pluspunten

- Small groups allow strong focus on growing your instruction and differentiation skills - Exposure to multiple grades builds deep understanding of skill progression - Ability to drive meaningful student growth and maintain strong relationships

Minpunten

- Unstable pay and low job security (hourly, contract, funding-dependent) - when we're off for a break, or unexpected snow days, you do not get paid any of those hours. you don't know if you're hired for the next school year until mid/late August. title 1 funding cuts make the job unpredictable (significantly cut down hours with no notice- Friday notice, effective Monday) , and not secure. Hourly pay seems good until you realize you will almost never work a full 80 hours/paycheck - Heavy paperwork and misaligned responsibilities - Limited support for professional growth or leadership development - Some of the worst benefits packages I've ever seen - next to no employer investment in retirement and employer is very limited in health benefits contributions
