Education & Reference - 17 November 2006

hello all. before i ask my question i want to make something clear so that i am not misunderstood by anyone: i enjoy teaching. i think that it is wonderful and i am very passionate about it. there is no feeling like that of wonder and understanding when a student finally gets it. i'm currently an undergrad and i'm planning to make teaching career in the future.

but i'm also a practical person and money really is important esp in singapore where costs seem to be rising every second. (eg GST hike from 5% to 7%) what i like to ask is this: does the salary for teachers increase every year? if so what is the rate of this increase? and in your unbiased opinion, is the pay scheme fair? the moe webbie doesnt tell me anything about pay increment and i would really like to know.

i hope that i dont come across as someone who thinks about money all the time. practicality is the driving force of this question and i would really appreciate it if you guys can help me out.

thanks all!

Hi. This is to those who have recently sent their ucas application or who are familiar with it.

I'm applying to Uni through UCAS as an individual since i already left school but don't understand completely the first section: COURSE

I have got the institution, course, campus codes etc. Since i want to start next year 2007, wouldnt ticking defer mean that the course starts in 2008? What about home, do i need to tick it? Lastly the point of entry, what is it i need to put in there?

I'd appreciate a very informative answer.

I'm a college freshmen and I'm a psyhology major. I want to become a Couple's Therapist but I need a school to transfer to. I was wondering, if you know any good University in California or Cal State to go to? It's something I have to tell my counseler and something I may consider.

Thanks! :]
