    The admin policies are not pro-employees.
    The good thingsThe students are fun.
    The challengesThe admin doesn't consider the effects of its policies on its employees. Their policies tend to be very-pro parents, pro-students and more about making money, and not much else. During COVID, they suddenly forced us to pack semestral subjects into 1 quarter which was terrible.

    Short and quite worthwhile.
    The good thingsIt came unexpectedly. In 3 months I gained three certificates from a webinar and it gave me knowledge of things to what to improve.
    The challengesI was challenged in delivering the instructions since it is through cyberspace. The barrier that could really affect the instructions is the speed of the internet.
