No matter how much we earn and I mean all over the world, it will never be enough. When we divide the salary we get by the amount of hours we invest, it �s clear we are paid very little.
 
But.... would I change career? Never.
 
The real salary is the hugs, the smiles, the thank yous, the "ah! now I get it"

In my country you couldn �t even rent a single room for a student for 200 euros, georgya. University students pay between 250 and 350 euros rent for a single room or a room in an apartment. PLUS electricity. My son who is a student (about 550 km away from where we live)  gets a monthly cheque of about 500 euros - AND I pay his health insurance on top of that plus his tickets for travelling home at Christmas and Easter and in the summer to make sure he comes to see us ;-)

So I �m not sure there is much point in comparing salaries as long as we don �t talk about the cost of living in our countries.

We pay 4 Euros for a pound of coffee, 8 euros for a kilo of meet (average), 2,20 euros  for a glass of coke or a cup of coffee in a restaurant and 0,55 euros for a stamp (letter, not abroad).
Books (not paperback) cost between 15 and 21 euros. Bus tickets from 1,80 upwards, from here to the nearest town (14 km) it �s 3,50 euros.

So I would starve or freeze to death or live in a park on your salary!

hi! In portugal it depends on what kind of classes your have and if you work in public or private schools. I only work in private schools. teaching kids we can earn 300 euros a month (14h/week) and teaching grown-ups you can earn between 300 and 800 euros a month. it depends on how much hours you have in that month. at the end you have to think about taxes too. bye

yes,edlerverein,you are right about the cost of living...,here,we have lower prices,indeed- a coffee at a restaurant is about 2-3 euros, a kilo of meat is about 4-5 euros,a room to rent in the capital city is 150 per month...so....well,what can I say...life is hard anyway,thinking that there are some guys or girls who have 4 thousand euro bags or watches

I thought Romania is a developed country. In Morocco teachers get more than 200 euros. For me I get 600 euros monthly although Morocco is an african country.

Frankly, I don �t even want to tell you about my salary as I start feeling ashamed for my country. �But edlerverein is right. It all depends upon the prices in the country in general.

And as to the prices... I have an idea to share with you. You discussed the prices and salaries, and this topic seemed interesting and close to real life. �What about starting an international project for our students in which they will prepare reports with figures, pictures and stories about marketing and prices in their countries?

Thus we �ll have them recollecting or training the topic "Shopping", get them motivated by close-to-life tasks and, besides, we �ll be able to compare the level of life in different countries and make a kind of our own rating.

What would you say to that?
