2.7 take home
1.0 afterschool program
2.5 on the side- legally of course

6.2 when all is said and done.

6.2 is nothing to sneeze at -- but how many hours are you working/travelling/prepping? In 1996, I was making 7-8 million a month, but I was working over 100 hours a week (54 at Wonderland, 20 at LG, about 25-30 in private lessons). Lotsa cash, no free time. I did it to work down muh debt, but couldn't keep the pace for more than a few months, what with travel and prep added to the total....

Surely you could be turning this spare time into cash, to top up your meagre income.... Shocked

Thats awesome. You must be "famous teacher." What are you charging per hour? The highest I could ever go without feeling like I wasn't worth it was 40.

2.7 at a school, or a uni? That salary is rare these days. How'd you'd score that?

Sure, but in her world there are 30 hours in a day and 8 days in a week. Otherwise, it sounds like a bunch of bullsh*t to me. But you guys can believe it if you want.

thats interesting. i admire people with enough motivtion and energy to do that. I'm not jealous though because money is not my priority and I'm a bit more lazy than most, probably.

Anything over 22 lessons a week and i'd probably go nuts.
