La Europa Academy

Team Leader

August 2018 • Murray, UT

What I liked

I liked working with the kids and getting to know and help them. I also liked working with my team and planning the direction we should take to best serve the kids in our charge.

What I wish was different

I wish management was more invested in their employees. I felt like we weren’t listened to very well and it put the kids in jeopardy at times. It also led to frequent staff burnout.
