Amazing Athletes

What is the best part of working at the company?
The best part of working at Amazing Athletes is making a positive impact on children every day. It’s rewarding to help kids build confidence, coordination, and teamwork skills while having fun. The work environment is energetic and uplifting, and seeing children excited to learn and grow makes the job meaningful.

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
Sometimes there are multiple classes at different locations, so traveling between them and staying on schedule can be stressful. However, the centers are very accommodating, and since you help manage your own schedule, they understand when you’re coming from another location.

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
The work environment is positive, supportive, and energetic. The culture is centered around helping children learn through fun activities, and the staff and centers are usually friendly, flexible, and encouraging.

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
A typical day at the company involves traveling to different centers, leading fun and engaging classes for children, and creating a positive environment where kids can learn and stay active. The days are energetic, rewarding, and usually flexible.

I travel to different preschools on each day of the week, set up my equipment, go to the classrooms, get my "athletes", and teach the curriculum in a way to engage the students for the entire class. 
I learned that I have to have patience and consistency with my teaching and discipline to be able to teach the activities in order to mature a child's motor development, hand-eye coordination, and cardiovascular fitness. As well as having patience to teach the students teamwork, self-confidence, and patience themselves.
The management for this company is through one boss, who is the only co-worker I work with, who runs their specified city areas through the Amazing Athletes corporate company. My boss does a great job of running a fun and trusted company with great and open communication with me, the preschools, their teachers, and the athletes' parents.
The hardest part of my job is having the patience and energy every day for the kids that are causing trouble during class. When the students act out I have to take time out of my allowed time to address the situation, which takes away from the other students activity time in class, and makes it hard to complete the class on time.
The most enjoyable part of the job is seeing the progress the students make on their athletic abilities, attitude, and listening abilities. Also, the relationships I make with the students and their teachers.

This company expects you to be on call and available, if not you are looked down upon. They will have you traveling way further than planned. The times of work range from 30min-2hr hence the very low pay you receive. I would go to schools where the directors, principals and parents weren't happy with Amazing Athletes. The manager are also "coaches" which takes away from them "managing" and the company gets a mess. I showed up to a class once and wasn't informed before that there wasn't class, so i got paid for nothing. You can be the best fit person for this position, and the manager will still find things wrong. She has favorites which is unnecessary. They care more about their business than the people involved (workers,parents,school employees). The overall organization of the company needs a lot of work and this would be a good fit for you if you're looking for a little extra money.

Typical day usually consist of going to the storage unit for equipment. You then head to class which is at most an hour and change (including child pickups). The curriculum that management wants you to follow is not adequate enough. The skills/lesson plan doesn’t offer enough complexity for the kids 5 and older. The management will also schedule you whenever they deem fit, regardless if it coincides with your schedule. They can also forget to update the coaches if their respective class has been cancelled, and you won’t know until the school themselves tell you when you arrive. 

Such an amazing company. You fall in love instantly because you can tell the kids love the program, and the people who teach it love it just as much as the kids!! Such a loving place and they make sure their employees are taken care of and comfortable. Only down side is when school is out the hours a reduced drastically, so I was working 2 hours a week, over 3 days. It's an amazing program.

When you tell them a concern and they say they will fix it and they don’t over a month later and you address it weekly! There is a problem with management. I also report broken/ not enough equipment week after week and was told I would get new equipment but never did. I would time my 30 min classes with a timer on my watch then was told I wasn’t running my class the full time. Enough was enough and I quit after a talk with management.

kids will be kids but thats part of the excitement as I go in to coach and have the ability to work and grow with each student! Schools and most parents are very supportive. My boss is literally one of the most hardworking and kind person I know. Love that theres such a great work/life balance with this job.

Loved the job. Great support from managers. You learn how to communicate effectively with children and people is management positions. Would recommend. Loved the sports structure and aspect of the program. 

Used to work here...Management is horrible and often don't communicate. They might tell you one thing and do another. They do not value employees only new accounts and what you can do for them. DONT APPLY

A typical work day includes coming in a briefing yourself or someone briefing you on the activities you are going to do with kids. There may be some moments where you are briefed and have to be inventive with what you do. But I love it a lot and the kids are very sweet.
