Supportive education role with flexible experience, training, and great opportunity for college students - Teacher Assistant Simply Ed Employee Review

Interview process and onboarding were straight forward and expectations are made clear. Staff is responsive to any issues that come up. As a new teacher I was given the opportunity to work in some different schools which was valuable and all my assignments were convenient to where I live.

It is not guaranteed you will have full 35-40 hr weeks.

From day one, Simply Ed gave me the trainings to excel in the classroom. They also provided all the additional information I needed to do my job well, such a shared sheet to write student’s progress notes. I was also able to form bonds with the students to the point of receiving comments that I was their favorite teacher at the school. The kids said they liked me but the work was challenging, which is a good sign. All the staff were approachable and immediately responded whenever I needed help. When I was having trouble in the classroom with students taking too long on assignments, Mr. Granda met with me to give me further coaching and guidance. On snow days, when I got stuck and had to be about 5-7 minutes late, or when I was sick (It was a paid sick day), Ms. Nieves was understanding and reached out to the staff of the school where I was working. Whenever I needed any administrative letters, Ms. Fred always made them available within less than 24 hours. I really appreciated working with Simply Ed and will be happy to be back the following school year.

I second the fact that there should be town hall meetings, where people learn from each other, maybe not every month but at least once a year or once a semester. These meetings or town halls should be paid for staff who are currently working and there should be awards for best work…something you can put on a resume or tell a future employer.
