Pros

- Flexible schedule - Good pay considering PT - Depending on the school, a long-term subbing position could lead to a permanent teaching position.

Cons

- Inconsistency in available positions. There are weeks where it's busy and weeks where it's slow and it's hard to find work for at least two days.

Pros

You do get paid on time

Cons

You must work 2 days a week and get ready to be bombarded with messages from staff who do not understand what it’s like to be a sub. Often there isn’t enough work and majority of the schools are god awful.
