Productive and engaging work place
Fashion Merchandising (Former Employee), Hurst, TX – February 14, 2013
Pros: it worked with my college schedule with my classes in the mornings, and i got to work in the afternoons.
Cons: when, i caught students cheating on the accuplacer tests with calculators in math tests.
It was a great place for a college work study job and being a test monitor was great. The best part of the job was that it was work study and I could take my classes in the morning and work in the afternoons at the testing center. I watched students taking the ACCUPLACER test and monitored them. I made sure that they did not use calculators and cheat – more... on the math test or English tests by using their cell phones for spell check on the state test for Texas for college. – less

Stable and Secure place of Employment
Admissions Specialist (Current Employee), Fort Worth, TX – February 13, 2013
Pros: benefits
Cons: management, employee appreciation
A typical day at work consist of working with prospective students and co-workers to assure people receive great customer service and are supported on a new journey involving education.I have learned about customer care, veterans educational benefits, management, outreach and data entry. The hardest part of the job was also the best part of the job, – more... helping people. Sometimes it could be hard to work with an upset customer or someone who had a disability but once you were able to help them and they walked away with a smile it gave me great joy. – less

opportunity to teach college students, the hours, the pay--good for part-time & temp
College Instructor in English - (Former Employee), Harwood, NW. Campus Drive – September 11, 2012
Pros: the better-behaved students, (than high school), the chance to share my writing with my students, and teaching the great literature, the schedule, the pay for part-time and temp
Cons: little or no chance to become a full-time professor
I loved every assignment that I had at TCC. I loved teaching students how to write. Eventually, I was able to help them write all kinds of essays--eventually, the research paper. In the writing, I was able to show them how to make their writing relevant to their other classes. My co-workers were always excellent and fun. We usually had all kinds of – more... experiences to share. Also, our department heads were very encouraging and, even nurturing to us. I remember once, when I was almost in tears, as I explained that one of my class presentations, just simply "fell apart", after about 20 minutes into the presentation itself. This happened, even though I had prepared for two weeks on this class exercise. But my department head assured me that that happens; it's just the nature of the business. This made me feel a lot better, as anyone can imagine. One semester, in particular, I remember, I taught World Lit and British Lit. That semester, I could hardly wait to get to each class! It didn't even feel like working. It was more like a travel experience! – less

Adjunct Instructor/Upholstery (Current Employee), Fort Worth, TX – July 18, 2012
Pros: set hours
Cons: when the class dosen't make
My work day consists of teaching upholstery to adults and young adults. I have learn that TCC has a laid back atmosphere for all employees. Management is great to work for. My coworkers are supportive and very friendly. The hardest part of my job is making sure every student gets what they need to accomplish their tasks and assignments. I enjoy my job – more... when my students tell me that they have learn a lot from my teaching. – less

Flexibility for Lesson Plans
Creative Writing Teacher (Former Employee), Fort Worth, TX – July 5, 2012
Pros: we were given cell phones to use in case of emergencies.
I enjoyed teaching creative writing during the summer session of College for Kids. Even though I was employed to work half a day I found my time with my student rewarding and enriching. My students seem to have enjoyed taking the class also.

While I taught poetry and writing stories it was cear during publication that the students used thier creativity – more... because the book was full of creative poetry and short stories.

Management was helpful and proficient in fullfilling any request that I made for needed supplies. Co-workers were friendly and easy to engage in conversation. The most difficult part of my job was the commute. The most enjoyable part of the job was reading the publication of the book. – less

Great, but glass ceiling.
Administrative Office Assistant (Current Employee), Fort Worth, TX – June 4, 2012
Pros: security, benefits, people.
Cons: advancement opportunities, salary-to-responsibilities off balanced for some.
All in all, I have really enjoyed my experience growing with this organization. However, there seems to be a lack in advancement potential. From lack of positions to other disappointing practices; I doubt I will be heading up so I am looking to move on. However, job security is excellent if you can get in the door!

Pretty good place...
Adjunct Professor (Former Employee), Fort Worth and Arlington Texas – May 19, 2012
I will always be grateful to TCC for giving me my first opportunity to teach. My only complaint was that they did not allow faculty to change the book. For teaching business math, they insisted on a book that taught students how to use tables to calculate loan payments. The rest of the world has been using calculators and computers.

Fun place to learn; great students and faculty; first rate institution
Pre-Litigation Assistant (Former Employee), Hurst, TX – April 22, 2012
Pros: fleible class schedules
Cons: new mandatory attendance policy
I have enjoyed being on campus again. All of the professors and adjunct faculty are really good at teaching to different background of students. Most of the professors have master's degrees or higher, and really challenge students to be the best that they can be.

At times I have been challenged with new material, but I seemed to overcome it by putting – more... in extra time in the library, writing lab, etc. I believe the most enjoyable part of attending TCC has been joing my Student Paralegal Association(SPA). – less
