Its all Business - Teacher Learning Network Employee Review

Great coworkers, holidays, PTO, work life balance

Pay, no other cons really

Thankfully, you work from home so you not have to handle your colleagues in person.

This is not a traditional teaching position. I spent more time (cold) calling people than actually teaching. Teachers have at least 400 students a semester so impossible to create personal relationships with students. Lots of grading, lots of calls, and lots of pointless and repetitive tasks with very little academic value. Let's be honest: the goal is to make as much money as possible while pretending to care. The administration functions on a corporate model: they have little to no academic credentials and no legitimacy to be in management, but they know how to play the corporate game. Teachers do not last long as the environment is toxic! Overall, this is the model for online education: lots of subpar students, lots of busy pointless work, lots of unqualified managers, and sadly, lots of micromanagement on a daily basis.
