My mom was a paraprofessional in PG County, MD and after working for PGCPS for 37 years she was only making around $25/hr
In my country Fiji 🇫🇯 teachers make like 24k a year and like 30 dollars an hour and the average salary of a individual random is #$4 an hour
that's why we use 'para'
She was a para...no disrespect.
That is about right. My wife is a "paraprofessional" in Health care, 35 years exp, $21/hour.
@@ericswift846 that’s all I make in my current job with a bachelor’s degree. I also don’t get every holiday off, I don’t get summers off, I don’t get Christmas and spring break, and I don’t have a pension.
Assuming the Aussie was talking in AUD, that would convert to roughly $58.5k
The current rate for the USD is abnormally high. Does not reflect true value. Just two years ago, it was 0.75 to AUD, now its 0.62 to an AUD. I don't think their standard of living in the US went up by 20% in 2 years.
It would be nice to see a compilation for teaching outside of the richest areas of the country. Teachers don’t make 100k anywhere except DC area.
Idk all these teachers seem to make big money
@@rickyayy Places like NYC, SF, and LA pay more but the cost of living is so high that it's not as much as it sounds like. Go to any state in the south or middle of the country and youl be lucky to make more than 40k which is honestly disrespectful to pay someone with a graduate degree so little
Yep. Northern Virginia (aka NoVA), which includes Arlington, might as well be its own state given how high the cost of living is there.
We're just south of Richmond and stayed in a vacation rental townhouse about 5 years ago. There was extremely little street parking (fortunately we could use the garage) with zero yard, no porch/patio, and it wasn't even an end unit. It was half the size of our house, but its Zillow estimate was more than 2.5 times that of our house!! Plus we have a half acre lot with trees, a driveway that can hold 4 cars without blocking anyone in, plus enough street curbage within our property boundary for another 3 cars.
This is where she lives and this is how she makes her money and creates content for her channel and our entertainment and education. You want her to travel around the US and make videos? Lol at least offer to pay for it
Many teachers in the Seattle area make 100k with at least 10 years experience and a masters degree. However, the cost of living is extremely high.
I honestly think it's based on where you live. If you live in the DC area teachers get paid really well. Baltimore surprise me because the last I heard there in need of teachers and their paying them 80 to 100k.
You are 100% correct...It is based on where you live. A lot has to do with teacher unions, red/blue states, and overall cost of living in the area. Also, the more experience and education you have, the more you will get paid.
Honestly it depends on the district and the need, and usually, it's because there's a mismatch most of the time. Math, Science, Technology, Special Education, Billingual are usually the hardest ones
It totally depends on where you live. Every school district is different and they all have different contracts. It seems like, in most areas, they all have the options to increase your pay. You just have to do the work to get the increase.
The teacher salary scale makes no sense. Teachers should make more money. After COVID we learned how important their job is. It’s so sad that they have to pay thousands of dollars to get a Masters or Doctors Degree to ended up making less than $60,000 a year. Meanwhile Superintendents make a ton of money and they are not dealing with the kids. I feel like, teacher don’t receive the respect they deserve.
A masters degree is not required. Also, depending on the school district, they may even pay for a masters degree. Always start off with a bachelor’s degree and see if they will pay for the higher degrees. Some will.
Had to spend $55,000 for two degrees.. and that includes with an 83,000 academic scholarship. My starting salary as a teacher with a master's degree was $27,000 in 2010. Robbery.
Most teachers make the same regardless of higher certifications. Most teachers earn median income which is not bad if you ask me. Also if they’re making below median salary that is just the starting pay. Also it’s important to know that most jobs start you off on a low salary if you’re inexperienced.
@@youtubetimecapsul7491 not true...the higher the educational attainment the greater the salary.
@@babblesp1367 some states, at least in California, getting a credentials, is literally 1 or 2 classes away from getting a master’s degree. So yes, it is a master’s degree without the title and credit. It’s sneaky in my opinion. If you’re doing that much work, you deserve the title and pay for it.
After working in education for 6 months, many teachers don’t get paid enough in America. Para educators don’t either; that’s why every one of them I’ve worked with have other jobs too. On the other hand, my sister is a college professor and makes decent money, especially since her husband is a construction office manager.
Wow! Some of these teachers make really good money! The teacher pay in Florida sucks.
They must have gone out of their way here because I've never heard of a teacher making 6 figures salary
My mom is an elementary school teacher and makes 145k. Cali teachers makes a lot
@@russellhoss9410 Must be a private school
@@tribalque2232 public school. Very common in Cali for teachers to make good money
They shouldn't make that kind of money
@@joes7028 why?
Preschool teacher is a daycare teacher
@@Cultivatedbee23 Not always, some preschools are separate from daycares
I think I'm going to make a video on my salary as a teacher. A lot of misconceptions in general about teacher pay.
So you're a babysitter lol.
Teachers that teach Computer studies make well?
I was listening to my idol, Martha Stewart, in an Interview on shop with the stars.
She was asked questions abt her mom. Her mom was a teacher who md very little money at $27,000 per yr. Martha is in her 80s.
In 2004, my starting salary in the State of Florida, with a BS & K-12 cert, was $27,500.
Teachers are getting their cheap cars repossessed in the parking lots of schools so they can pay their student loan debt.
When I returned in 2017, as a high qualified educator, my salary was $37,500 with an MS in reading edu (at a cost of $68K), gifted endorsement cost $2,000, & my ESOL endorsement cost $2,000.
In 2022, my salary was $47,500. Teachers in FL got a raise, spearheaded by the Governor, but the districts also decreased med benefits to 70/30 & the copays per yr went up to $7K & sht term disability went up to $200 per paycheck.
So much for the $10K increase.
Now, I have my PhD & I can expect to mk $57K per yr while my state college hubby mks $400K/yr.
Oh, the salary cap for teachers is $101K & for admin $151K.
We both work for the state. He teaches a single class per semester & has 17 grad students & 6 labs.
I have 37-students per period in a molded & rat I fested portable, in an upscale community, that gave me a lung disease.
The class sz teacher student ratio for core classes is 22:1.
My salary doesn't match my financial invesent in my education, which is by the way student loans.
I love that you think DeSantis "spearheaded a raise" for teachers when he created an exception that allowed HS military to teach. Sorry, but this post is propaganda.
Why would you even go for a PhD knowing your pay won’t match your education? A PhD isn’t a requirement for your job.
Teachers ❤❤❤
Teachers should make a livable retirable wage across the board. I applaud these trachers for getting their six figures but i know it doesnt go far in California.
What’s crazy is the range of salaries. You have teachers making 100k in places like NYC for the same job as someone in the South who must make do with 50k. Taken as is, these numbers make no sense. Then you realize that adjusting for cost of living means that both teachers realistically make a similar amount.
Teacher : I make shit
Instagram model : I take 🤳, and make 6 figures and sometimes 6 figures per pic.
Onlyfans : Seen
Didn't get to see the countries/location in which each teacher taught/teaches.😢
Let me give you a solution to teacher shortages
-remove principals , superindents and all those administrators
How does that solve everything:
1) their huge pay checks can be divided on teachers of that school /district which will mean teachers will have a livable wage (its illogicql for administrators to get 300k with bonus each year while teachers who do thr heavy lifting get from 30k to 80k and only lucky ones reach 100k but with a compromise aka more classes and doing the job of two or three teachers )
2/ administrators have never been on the side of teachers they never help , they do practically nothing but be a burden on the teachers on top of the student's parents , administration is a source of stress for teachers, remove them will let teachers teach and educate and build relationships with their students without stress and without those administrators interfering and implementing policies and recommendations that are clearly theoretical which proves that they never stepped foot in a classroom or that they don't care
3/ teachers already do most of the administrative job in the school, so they can handle few tasks more as long as teachers number is adequate to cover the classes abd the work load and that is so doable when you remove the dead weight
Now, add benefits to those salaries. It's a tough job, no doubt. Now explain why our kids can't read or add.
"Preschool teacher" means daycare worker....
105 thousand? Isnt that insane?
In Washington DC no not really. And after 10+ years experience it’s a bad deal compared to STEM.
That is MORE THE NORM. They just DONT want to let you know. They WANT to complain to get MORE Money. All cars in elementary school p-lots are mercedes, lexus, tesla etc
33k?? Hell nah ma'am
Do not believe the BS that you hear about teachers making horrible salaries. Most teachers on average make the medium income. And if they are making a low salary then it’s the starting salary. By the way most jobs start you off at a low salary if you’re inexperienced.
U can learn everything on a computer now days no need for teachers anymore homeschool
That is dystopian
Thought teacher don’t make no money
Is it possible to have long form interviews with just one person that either peaks peoples interest for example this video?
You mean the one with the pair of peaks at the beginning?
Piques*
And teacher's want a raise too? what
Make 102k as a teacher in sacramento, ca
And a year for a teacher is 9 months and a work day is 5.6 hours.
Wrong, it's paid work load 10 months, unpaid work load 2 months, no lunch nor plan, 12 hrs per day.
Incorrect. My contract is for 212 work days at 8 hours in the building required. I am unpaid in the summer. Anything I cannot get done is unpaid overtime. Check your privilege and talk to real teachers before you assume incorrectly.
@@FrugalTeacherFIevery school district is different. How do you fix that? Change school districts. It’s just like any other job. If you don’t like your current employer, then you find a new one.
Not true. Maybe if you are a first or second year teacher you can get away with jumping ship and taking a new job. But you can't easily do that after 10+ years in the profession without taking significant pay cuts. Willing to bet you are not an educator yourself. Every teacher I know works 8 hours a day in the building and countless hours unpaid time at home. We also get 4 days a year off that aren't holidays or unpaid winter or spring break. You are prohibited from using any of those days attached to a 3 day weekend, which is not the case in the private sector. Teachers continue to get abused because people have a false understanding thinking that since tax payer money goes to education they get to be armchair bosses towards teachers. Teacher salary is just one of many issues, but it's a compelling one. You wouldn't have 400-500,000 unfilled teacher vacancies if it was paid accordingly with similar educated professionals. Just to be licensed in my state you need 6 years of college, plus every 5 years you have to take more courses to renew your license. I believe the wages continue to lag behind because it is a female dominated profession that Americans do not value, same as social work. We need a nationwide teacher walkout to send a message.
@@babblesp1367
@@FrugalTeacherFI if you’ve been in the same school district for 10+ years, then they must be doing something right. Why?
Because you’re still there…
Bruh I make 70k and first year teacher
What state?
Forbes reports that in 2023 the average salary in the entire country (all jobs) is $59,428 for 260 work days on average per year. It also reports the average public school salary for teachers is $56,937 for contracts of 180 days per year. Oh those poor underpaid teachers who on average get paid $316 per day (56,937/180 = $316 per day) compared to the average worker who gets paid $228 per day (59,438/260 days of work = $228 per day).
Teachers make more on average than all other professions combined. From the interviews in this video, most are doing far better than average. It would appear all this appeal to taxpayers about how poorly teachers are paid are falsehoods, fabrications, and deceptions. Don’t buy it. Teachers get paid plenty.
If teachers are so overpaid why is there a massive nationwide teacher shortage?
Just wondering. I mean if the pay is so terrific for the work shouldn't people be lining up to become teachers?
Pay rates in this video are also not representative of the nation as a whole as Washington D.C. has according to the NEA the highest starting teacher salaries in the U.S.
@@davidjanuski same reason why there is a hard labor shortage like carpenters electricians police men ect.. society has influence peoples perception on what career they need to choose to get ahead. For years teachers carpenters ect have been drilled into our heads that they are unworthy jobs due to lack of pay. That cant be further from the truth today.
Sorry to say I always knew teachers were lying about being underpaid
I think maybe it’s where you live and if education is valued. Red states where ignorance is valued not so much. Teachers in CT are paid well. Also preschool teachers are not teachers. They are day care providers. Please do not take preschool teachers salaries into account when talking about averages.
Yeah I heard in blue states they give teachers a bonus based on how many kids they can get to transition before they hit high school
@@SpicyBoba7431 the lizard king Illuminati said the same thing about your family
Education? You mean training, right?
In the State of Florida, we have preK in our public schools.
These are certified FL educators.
I think you mean daycare workers. They're definitely not educators.
Any one can open a daycare & call themselves a teacher. This is so confusing to the taxpayers, who don't know any better.
@@SpicyBoba7431 Both Republican & Democrat ivy league legislators have been stealing fm the edu budget since Kennedy was president.
In 2016, the Feds cut the edu budget but gave their ivy league pals in banking, pharma, industry, insurance investment, & retail, $trillions in tarp money.
Over a 20 yr period, my state md $40B in Lottery money.
Taxpayers voted the lottery in to reduce property taxes & fund edu but the ivy league legislators gave edu only $1B over 20 yrs, that
People look down at people working in trade jobs and they usually make the most 8 times out of ten. That's also the reason why I decide not to waste my time going to college after I graduated highschool
Facts.Going to trade school next year 🔥
Stop lying. No one looks down on tree job. It’s just that people would rather go to college and not destroy their body before they hit the age of 40. Not everyone wants to do extensive labor and that’s OK.
@@thenation2093 what's a tree job to start of and yes they do how many times have you seen people say sanitation engineer or plumber and use it as a joke
Making six figures while having two months off is pretty awesome
It's insane and a slap in the face to the taxpayers without children.
Except it takes about 20 years of teaching to make six figures in most places but go off
I have not met a teacher that makes 6 figure salary and my family is loaded with teachers.
@@dd7694 yeah, you should not have to contribute to society. Firemen don't ask if you have children when he is trying to save your life and house. Plus, teachers pay taxes too and most do not even make close to that amount and they do not get Social Security when they retire.
@@whocares897many people don’t make six figures. And, for the majority of people in general, most will never make six figures. It doesn’t matter the field.
Add $30-40k per year for benefits/retirement. I dont want to hear any more BS about teachers being underpaid and overworked, IT is the OPPOSITE
So you’ve like never taught before, they are definitely overworked and underpaid especially considering teacher is in the top 20 most dangerous jobs depending on the location, it is a huge risk.
@@whelpthiscouldbeworse4106 obviously putting the word “like” in between “you’ve” and “never” , neither have u I hope. What statistic do u have making it in the top 20? Dangerous how? Too many days off, too rich of benefits ?
@@ericswift846 You have a run-on in your post with no end punctuation. I would not be commenting on people's grammar.
Please go to red states and ask people
I feel like most of Salary Transparent Street is in very affluent blue areas. The story is way different in rural areas.
In OK they pay their teachers starting in the 30's.
Too bad public education is failing Americans
Seems more and more people are looking at private school
that's bc the government would rather fund the military than education
@@rickyayy yeah school choice is ideal
Yes. Homeschooling is the move. No one will care about educating your children more than you and your spouse.
@@youngKOkid1 What does the curriculum consist of in that setting? I've always been extremely skeptical of the concept for multiple reasons.
So many are overpaid.
Teachers should be capped at $75k
140k a year
Not even from the States butI love that your videos are all around NOVA and DC.. I used to live there and still visit it a lot. I get a rush every time I recognize a spot and the memories attached to it..and asking people these personal questions makes me feel like I know the community even better💙🤍
Plus ofc the educational value of actually knowing the answers.. Thank you))
So happy to hear it! We love the DMV :) Thanks for watching and for your support!
