21 this semester, as I'm doing 1st and 3rd grades (high school), while last semester was only 18. However, next semester with no 3rd grades, I'll only have 16.  |
Weird. I thought third grade students were too busy studying for the KSAT. That's why I can't teach third grade students at my high school. What's their level of interest in English, particularly in your classes with them? |

Last semester 16 hours. They raised it to 21 hours which I refused because it was too high.
They lowered it to 17 & apologized for making such a burdensome schedule in the first place.

| About 20 hours in-class, plus assorted paperwork, plus writing ten lessons worth of textbook material per week. |

Officially? 18 hours / week.:
18 classes @ 50 minutes = 15 hours / week
10 minutes before class actually starts: -3 hours / week
5 minutes early finishing time on average = -1.5 hours
so about 10 hours (give or take a few minutes) of *actual* teaching / week. |

Yeah, we have to teach them the first semester, but not the second. They are really good boys though, and are a joy to teach. Their level is quite good, and they are fun. They seem interested, and I think as the semester goes on, those who aren't into it will just not turn up to class. |
