Today I found out that it looks like I got a job here starting in September at a private university.

12 classroom hours a week
6 office hours per week which can be set at my discretion.

4 hours max. over time if I choose to do it.

In Japan I used to work 50 hours a week in language schools like NOVA. 40 hours were regular contract hours plus I'd do over time.

I couldn't do that anymore Laughing

Congrats on the new job, Daddy.

My contract says between 16-20 contact hours per week. In actual fact I only teach 12. It's a new, small school and they were a bit optimistic about how many new students a white face might bring in!

I can be wherever I like outside those hours. Which, sadly, is usually watching a movie at home...
