Great School environment
Assistant Teacher (Former Employee), Jacksonville, FL –
Pros: impact students, rewarding
Cons: 30 min break
Working with students on a daily basis. I learned compassion from being around the students who needed me. My co-wokers were excellent. The hardest part of my job was getting attached to the students and then having to leave when the job was over.

Interactive workplace
Chemistry Teacher (Current Employee), Jacksonville, FL –
Pros: working hours
Cons: assessing assignments require a lot of time
There is no such thing as a typical day. Working with students, you never know what you will get. Some days are more challenging then others but everyday is rewarding. This job definitely requires preparation and the ability to adjust objectives on the fly according to the needs of the students. The people that work here are some of the most extraordinary – more...  people one could ever meet. Everyone is pleasant, easy to get along with and always willing to help. The hardest part of this job is making it in to work because once here, everything else falls into place. The most enjoyable part of this job is the feeling of accomplishment when the students learn! – less

Great job, but no pay and dwindling benefits
Educator (Current Employee), Jacksonville, FL –
Pros: 10 month schedule, all holidays off
Cons: salary, joke benefits
When I first went into education I knew I was making a financial sacrifice compared to other fields, but I thought that the great benefits and job security would balance it all out in the end. Unfortunately in the seven years I have been teaching there has nothing short of an onslaught against our benefits.

This year taking into account my cost of – more...  health benefits which has risen in price by 100% in seven years I will actually be making LESS money than I was when I was a new hire. I simply cannot continue to work for a system that does not value its dedicated employees – less
