I �m from a small town in Russia. I work 26 hours a week, it �s about 104 hours a month. I get about 350 dollars a month for that.

Well, I �m English so I �m uncomfortable about this discussion ;-). Only joking. The starting salary is around £21,000 and goes up to, for a teacher on the main scale without a responsibility, £36,000. If you are head of department, you can earn up to about £11,000 more. Of course, it is how much it will buy you that counts. I have a responsibility as head of dept (curriculum team leader) and am at the top of the main pay scale. My husband and I have worked all our lives but we can �t afford much by way of a house. You have to be in business, I think! Or not a materialist as Peter suggests. |

This really doesn �t say anything. If you do not take into account the cost of living, these figures are totally empty. 100 dollars in New York, isn �t the same as a 100 dollars in Nigeria. I live in Israel, I get paid for 17 hours a week (that �s all the English I can teach in our school, combining all the English hours taught in 4 different grades) and my salary doesn �t cover the avarage rent in Jerusalem. (BTW, I wish the figures for Israel were true for me, they aren �t) |

I believe that it is important to compare your salary with other professions/occupations in your country. This helps you identify how your country deems teachers compared to other professions.
Having worked in more than one state, I found that teaching salaries in Australia vary greatly between states, but also between private and public sector.
Primary and secondary - private schools generally pay more than government schools
Post secondary/vocational - government institutions pay far more than private
University - I don �t know.
Generally, teachers with up to date university qualifications are well paid. More info here

In Japan it�s�normal to get bonuses twice a year if you�re a�nationally registered teacher in a government or private school (not conversation/eikaiwa/cram) sector. It�s very uncommon for foreign teachers to be paid these bonuses. The bonuses themselves are usually a month�s pay each, and are not typically included�as part of the salary. A typical foreign�elementary, junior or senior high school teacher would be on around US$30,000 per annum, and�they do not always receive paid holidays for the summer vacation - around 6 weeks. � On top of your wages you are paid for transport to and from work. My annual transport allowance runs to around US$5,000. � In my case I also have extended paid holiday (40 days + public holidays), no bonuses, but a substantially higher level of pay (but I�m not saying how much). I am, after all, the head teacher in the English department.�� All the figures above are based on 100 yen = US$1, which isn�t explicitly correct, it depends on the exchange rate.
Cheers, AB�

Correcting my previous entry, there is a big difference between �normal � teachers and ESL teachers. As a normal teacher in an aboriginal community I took over $100K. (Better than Canada!) I didn �t have to pay rent, electricity or whatever comes with a house. On the downside, my car didn �t last longer than three years. Needing a 4WD that would set me back a small fortune too. So, as many already said, it all depends on the circumstances and cost of living. ESL/EAL Teachers take a lot less, somewhere between $45-$70K. Like, Lynne, one barely gets by on that. (Picture: Me, now.) |
