What ILS Instructors Say

What rewards do ILS Instructors get through their jobs?

• “I love seeing people progress and achieve things. You see how people change and accomplish things.”
• “I like the unpredictability of it.”
• “I love interacting and relating to the people that I work with.”

What challenges do ILS Instructors face in their jobs?

• “The philosophy of ILS is for people to be independent. That is what our job is about. But it’s hard sometimes to do that, help someone be independent and make their own decision and watch them do something that you wouldn’t do.”
• “Patience. I thought I had a lot of patience until I started this job and then I wondered how could someone with less patience do this?”
• “People don’t know what you do as an ILS Instructor.”
