Vantaggi

Pay always came through, but no transparency on why it was late sometimes. The students were generally pleasant.

Svantaggi

Strange structure for what should be an academic institution. New teachers aren't respected at all and are sometimes observed by less qualified and less experienced teachers. Management is concerned with how it's always been done and reacts very negatively to criticism. Favoritism is rampant. The director isn't entirely qualified to be one and when there's any pressure, it becomes blatantly obvious. Seems like some of the old guard are trying to squeeze a few more years out of the program before the contract is up for renewal, and as such, they're not making the best long-term decisions.

Vantaggi

The PYD program was well developed and teaching PYD was relaxing and rewarding. The students were well behaved. They consistently showed respect and gratitude for the program and teachers. Lesson plans and worksheets were already made so I had time to focus on my students’ individual needs. Each unit followed the same pattern so I was able to master the lesson plans and experiment with new activities. I had more than enough time during work hours to focus on professional development by researching new ideas to use in the classroom. I had an active social life on the Sadoun compound where the Shabaka teachers live. I was a regular yoga student, soccer player, basketball player, and gym goer on the compound. While I wasn’t doing physical activities, I had time to focus on online courses, read books, watch TV shows, and socialize with other teachers. I ate great food within walking distance from the compound at Afghani, Pakistani, Yemeni, and Turkish restaurants on a daily basis.

Svantaggi

Things can get boring here sometimes and it can be a struggle to stay positive when there aren't many outlets to let off some steam.
