Hi Folks,

I'm thinking of making the jump from working with teens to the little ones this fall, could anyone clue me in on the salary range and expected number of weekly class hours in a typical pre-school or kindergarden?

Also, are you expected to put in hours in the summer and if not is the salary still paid for the 12 months?

Thanks!

jobs pay anywhere from USD 1300-1500 (Doga, Istek, working up to 40 hrs a week) to USD2000+ (at the decent schools, 20-25 contact hrs a week). if u have a teaching certificate, try british international school or ted, good pay, fewer hours

Thanks for the tip, that's a heck of a difference between schools, isn't it??
