Vantaggi
great resources, high-profile organization leads to great resume booster, great way to get a teaching certification if you weren't an undergrad education major
Svantaggi
Beware because the organization doesn't fully describe the corps experience accurately. You literally are thrown into a inner city classroom with little preparation(and they don't paint the picture of this as they should... these students literally do not understand what school is supposed to look like. Be ready to get stuff thrown at you and to be cussed out simply for requesting students to sit down... you will be starting from ground 0 with these kids, even if they are in hgigh school) Sure they describe it like you're going to be making this stunning difference in your students lives but be ready to feel like, and often times be, a failure. Expect 60-70 hour weeks.
