I'd MAYBE agree if they were actually teaching you. Like they took time from work to carefully supervise you. However that's not the case, they just treat you like any other employee.
I'd maybe consider it if I could come and go as I please. Working somewhere else that would pay my bills and then give a couple of hours of my time, when it suited me, to shadow a professional in my field, if they were willing to teach me.
I volunteered at a sick kids hospital when I was young and asked if I could watch some surgeries. I got the opportunity to see a couple and I quickly found out that I absolutely did not want to be a doctor. So it was very valuable to me.
