How much mony do you think an average teachers is paid every two weeks?

Question

How much do you think they make in a year?

Answer 1

Interesting question - do you plan to help us teachers get paid more???? Every state is different and it also depends upon the step (number of years) a teacher has been in the system. Additionally, it depends upon the degrees she has earned or hours increasing her knowledge. Let's say that in Nashville, a beginning teacher - fresh out of college with no experience would probably make about $22,000 a year - perhaps a little more. A teacher with 10 years in the system plus a Doctorate degree could make as much as $55,000. That is NOT a lot of money. It is awful! But - teachers do not teach because of the money. I teach - because I believed this was a career I was called into -to lead, to instruct and to show love to developing boys and girls. After about 10 years off and on from several systems, I have not run out of steam and I still love what I do.

According to the U.S. Department of Labor:

Median annual earnings of kindergarten, elementary, middle, and secondary school teachers ranged from $39,810 to $44,340 in 2002; the lowest 10 percent earned $24,960 to $29,850; the top 10 percent earned $62,890 to $68,530. Median earnings for preschool teachers were $19,270.

According to the American Federation of Teachers, beginning teachers with a bachelor's degree earned an average of $30,719 in the 2001-02 school year. The estimated average salary of all public elementary and secondary school teachers in the 2001�02 school year was $44,367. Private school teachers generally earn less than public school teachers.

In 2002, more than half of all elementary, middle, and secondary school teachers belonged to unions�mainly the American Federation of Teachers and the National Education Association that bargain with school systems over wages, hours, and other terms and conditions of employment. Fewer preschool and kindergarten teachers were union members --about 15 percent in 2002.

Teachers can boost their salary in a number of ways. In some schools, teachers receive extra pay for coaching sports and working with students in extracurricular activities. Getting a master's degree or national certification often results in a raise in pay, as does acting as a mentor. Some teachers earn extra income during the summer by teaching summer school or performing other jobs in the school system.

NOTE: Salaries vary greatly with location, experience and qualification
