Yes. Unfortunately, you are typically paid only for the time actually spent in front of students, so you work 40-50 hours a week, and you are paid for 20 hours. I'd think 40-50 hours a week to be a high estimate. My guess would be about 35. Mixi needs 50 hours because he's incompetent. because he can't sleep properly in his cramped overheated chief executive type cupboard. He might consider moving into the rice cooker, or the fridge. The leftovers are nearly finished, so there might be more room now! -- David Horne- http://www.davidhorne.net usenet (at) davidhorne (dot) co (dot) uk http://homepage.mac.com/davidhornecomposer http://soundjunction.org |

but better than doing nothing. Time is money. When you are trying to make enough money to live on, you must be sure that you don't spend so much time on low-paying activities that you no longer have time to take on higher-paying activities. A fair number of ESL/EFL teachers teach only part-time and then reserve remaining time for something that is more lucrative but does not provide enough work for full-time employment. -- Transpose mxsmanic and gmail to reach me by e-mail. |

For ESL/EFL, it's about €15 per hour, which works out to about €9 per hour net after taxes and social security. With 20 hours a week, that's €780 per month. Apartments start at about €500-€550 per month. Food costs a bare minimum of €100 a month or so, depending on how much one cooks and how often one must eat away from home. Electricity is usually about €50-€70 per month. -- Transpose mxsmanic and gmail to reach me by e-mail. |

So it's a genetic trait? Not in this case. Merely a coincidence. A big co-incidence that the whole family is useless. I'd still bet on genetic connection. -- Tim C. |

So what is the average and media hourly rate then? -- David Horne- http://www.davidhorne.net usenet (at) davidhorne (dot) co (dot) uk http://homepage.mac.com/davidhornecomposer http://soundjunction.org |
