6 70 minute classes a day? Compare that to a public school, for example. In a public elementary school, you'd be expected to work 22 40 minute classes a week, which adds up to 880 classroom minutes a week. By contrast, this would be 24 70 minute classes a week, which adds up to 1680 classroom minutes. Nearly double, for the same (or worse, depending on your ranking) pay.

Maybe I'm misunderstanding something here? Because although a four day work week sounds nice enough, the rest seems like a pretty hard schedule to me. Brutally so.
