$43,000 as a second grade bilingual teacher, plus nominal side job as an interpreter for the police department.\n1) It's a good start.  When I need more $$ for home improvement or education expenses I get a side job for a few years. (Besides the interpreter thing, that's a constant, oh yeah, we eBay too, but that's not in the $43,000.)\n2) Spouse is full-time student, part time pizza delivery "boy"; income is a pittance because gas is so expensive and we live where hardly anyone tips the delivery boy.\n3) No\n4) Yes, because we live below our means and raise a large garden.\n5) I am where I want to be, but I also aspire to teach a college course part-time and I'd like to be a motivational speaker for teachers.\n\nHey "Pete" what state do you teach in?  I've been in the racket for 10 years. . .and I'm well below you.

There is a scale for teaching assistants and as you are newly qualified you will be a level 1 assistant but the actual salary will be dependent on how many hours you do. Contact your LEA and they should be able to tell you the salary for full time level 1 TA which should help you.

First, you must have your bachelor's degree (it can be in anything).  Then, you need to take the CBEST (covers basic skills) to get into a credentialing program.  Next you need to take your credential classes and take a subject matter exam (CSET).  Once you pass, you will be allowed to do your 1 semester of student teaching.  If you are successful, then you will be able to apply for your teaching credential.\n\nSome places do have an "intern" program, where you can start teaching sooner, but you will still have to pass the tests first.\n\nAs for salary, a starting teacher will make anywhere between $30,000 - $45,000 depending on the district and how much education you have.

Nope, the masters degress is just to go up on the salary scale.  With more education and more years experience you get paid more. You need a BA and a teaching credential to teach

It's a wide range depending on your discipline and where you teach.\n\nSome are as low as $40,000 while some go as high as $500,000 or more.  And for some that is just their base salary.  There is also additional income from consulting.

Teachers in the Los Angeles Unified School District start at $43,054 if they have no college units past their bachelor's degree and no teaching experience.  The highest salary I found on their salary schedule is $75,541 with a doctoral degree and at least 30 years of teaching in the district.  It sounds like a lot considering the average teacher's salary in the US is somewhere in the $30,000 range.  But you have to remember that Los Angeles has a very high cost of living.  An average 3 bedroom house there costs at least $500,000.   I lived in the Greater LA area and made $57,000 a year as a fifth year teacher in a small Orange County school district.  I moved out of the area because I couldn't afford to buy a house.  Hope that helps.

Most of what the one poster said is true, with a few exceptions.\n\nA good math teacher may start at 35000, but can end up at the better end of 60,000 after a few years.\n\nComputer science is actually a fairly in demand major, despite the tech bubble burst. They are still reporting starting salaries in the 50,000 range. The burst caused an exodus in the computer science major, which has actually worried companies like Microsoft, Intel, IBM, etc.\n\nYou have the equivalent of an A.S. degree, though. A decent salary might be 22-25 thousand.

I think a $100-$150 a week is fair depending on what part of Brooklyn. I'm from NY as well and see ads in the paper for rooms for rent at about that range.

Sounds to me you are a great candidate for teaching.  What type of bachelors do you hold?  Have you thought about alternative certification?  For instance, if your BA is in business you can enter into a "fast track" program that provides the opportunity to earn a teaching certificate.  I am not a big fan of the program due to the absence of specialized educational/psychology /childhood development classes.  However, quality teachers are badly needed all over the country and the alternative certification program helps to meet that need.   By the way, if you land a teaching position and at the same time, return to college to earn your Masters, look into funding programs that will help or pay all of your tuition.  \n\nI am a teacher.  I wish you all the best.

Depends on the school and your level of education and whether you are hired as an associate professor, lecturer, department head, etc.  Also depends on whether your postion is temporary, term or tenure track.  But generally they make more than teachers in the school system.  A full professor would earn more than $100,000, while an assistant or assocate professor would make only about $60,000. And you wouldn't start as a full professor.  You have to work your way up in the university system.   Starting salaries can be quite low - as low as $35,000.  \n\nI hope this helps.

In Massachusetts, the average salary for a preschool teacher is around $23,000. However, Massachusetts has the highest paid prechool teachers in the country so the average for other states is lower. I'm sorry but I don't know those numbers.
