Typical IA experience with Title I Preschool
Instructional Aide - Title I Preschool (Former Employee) – Columbia, MO – August 9, 2018
I worked as an Instructional Aide in the Title I Preschool area. I was with another teacher in a classroom with 15 students full time. The daily management was left up to the co-teacher team with limited management oversight.

Good first job for high school students
Youth Leader (Former Employee) – Chicago, IL – July 8, 2018
Very good job for my first job. Training was great with the activities and different skills I learned. Like communication and how to trust a coworker with decisions on specific tasks
A busy workplace
Science Teacher (Former Employee) – Chicago, IL – July 4, 2018
A teacher has a busy day at work. He/she has to prepare the lesson plans ahead of time. a typical day at work is stressful.
With a background of teaching as university faculty, the students at high school level are more difficult to manage and engage.

Great place to learn; every day is different; have to be able to deal with the reality of children being hurt
Specialist IV (Former Employee) – Harlingen, TX – June 24, 2018
It was a great place to learn; opened my eyes to the harshness that affects people but it also gave me an opportunity to see people opening their homes & hearts for others. I truly enjoyed working in the conservatorship & foster/adoptive units. It was hard, tiring, & sometimes overwhelming...but I it helped me grow.

strong people; some autonomy; ability to help children
Cons
stress load; high volume of cases; lack of resources in area
challenging and rewarding work, low pay
Case Manager (Current Employee) – Atlanta, GA – June 4, 2018
low pay and few raises, little recognition for good work
I love the job, but if you have a Supervisor or a manager that is hard to deal with it is hard to get help from upper management.

The experience was useful and yet very stressful.

Extremly Important work
Program Administrator (Former Employee) – Houston, TX – March 17, 2018
I worked in this business because it is one of the most important jobs out there. However it is a very stressful work environment. Lack of support from the community and community partnerships made this work even more challenging.

Helping children
Cons
Very stressful work!
provide child safety

go to court, long hours, low pay
Personal and involved

Pros
Helping children in need
Cons
Hours, pay, drama/stress
