M-F 4-9 (its that simple)

[pocariboy73]

Monday to Friday....10:00am to 5:00pm
1hr for lunch from 12-1

[ryleeys]

Hey pocariboy, same schedule as me basically, don't you feel drained at the end of the week? 1 hour teaching little kids is like 3 hours doing a desk job in my opinion... It's starting to require more than a beer a week to recover...

[pocariboy73]

"drained"....I feel almost DEAD. Only 43 more days of this "experience" then off to something new. Mind you, I actually prefer doing all the classes in a Block Fashion rather than having a schedule where the classes are scattered through out the day. Best of the two evils, I suppose

[ryleeys]

Well, I've got 10 more months left... I guess I kind of get a break because on Wednesdays my last two classes are older middle school kids that are exceptionally well behaved and excellent students... but those 7 year olds... it's taking me alot to not lose my temper.

[crazylemongirl]

I have a swiss cheese schedule

MWF 11-12 12.30-1.30 3-3.40 4-4.40 5.00-5.20 6-6.20
TT 11-12 12.30-1.30 2-.40 4.20-4.40 5.20-5.40

shawner,
It was actually worse a few weeks ago. But my teaching hours aren't much..

[slap it]

I used to work 4 - 10. Now I work 10 a.m. to 10 p.m. in a Korean firm. I'm not a teacher anymore. YES I've joined in on the slave chain but I also make twice as much.

[lao_ocean_girl]

Monday - Friday: 12:10-5:10pm, with a 45 break every day.

I'm in the classroom about 20 hours a week, come in 10 minutes before class and leave immediately. I'm not making 3 or 4 million, like some teachers, but I love my school and schedule.
