Great Opportunities.

May 2015
Professionally Rewarding but under paid.
Teacher Assistant:
Pros: The children. It is very rewarding to help children grow emotionally and physically healthy.
Cons: Low rates. Lunch breaks always late. BH is not a bad company however, I feel they pay bad for all what they ask from their staff. They also charge a lot to parents but they do not share it with their staff that make the business runs.
This Is a corporation so the business is first. Heart principles are there in the paper but I feel money and business are first.
They have so many things that you could think they are great company but their low pay is more significant than anything else. I think the people they get as workers are many time with low skills to work with children but you get what you pay.

I am a teacher assistant at a day care that gets paid $8.05.
Teacher Assistant:
Pros: Mt job is fascinaring when it comes to teaching the kids their abc's how to count and how to observe what surrounds them. This is an important stage in their lives, and I love being part of it. I love seeing them get enthusiastic about the activities, singing to songs. I enjoy lunch time because I see how each and one of them begin to share their food. My job can cause headaches at times when they dont listen, when they disrespect one another and when they disrespect me, but patience is a virtue and day by day I help them better themselves.
Cons: I dislike how unappreciative my coworkers are and how the management ignores our efforts. I dislike how little we are being paid for a job that takes so much energy from us, for a job thats so important in our community. I help these kids be better day by day, I prepare for the future, and I dont get any recognition for it. Its also upsetting how much work I do, I do the teacher's work, because the teacher is doing the manager's work. Everyone is getting payed minumun wage, when its not suppose to be like that.
January 2015
It is very rewarding.
