Well-paying teaching jobs with flexible hours

Unread post by tenneray »

I teach online with a well-known company. It is a part-time job and I do somewhere between 15-20 hours per week. I really enjoy online teaching and I believe it will continue to grow in importance. One thing I like about my job is the flexibility of not having a rigid schedule or a minimum number of required hours. Another thing I like is that I am not required to teach young kids. The big problem, however, is the low rate of pay. And there are no increases with seniority, either. I am a professional teacher with TEFL qualifications, and I am a certified teacher—with graduate degrees in another field (history).
I am seeking a better-paying position online—one paying at least $20 an hour. At present, it would have to be part-time (I work full-time at a couple of brick-and-mortar schools.) with flexible hours, too. Any recommendations or suggestions are welcome. Thank you kindly.

I understand you. Being a teacher is hard enough, and we deserve a higher pay

It's understandable that the low pay rate is a concern for you, especially since you have advanced qualifications. Have you considered looking into other online teaching companies that offer higher pay rates?

I know that the salary is higher at teaching jobs Nottingham. It's always worth researching and seeing what other opportunities are out there. Also, Consider offering your services as a private tutor, which may allow you to set your rates.

I guess finding a well-paying online teaching job with flexible hours can be difficult, but there are definitely options out there. You will probably want to check platforms like Preply or iTalki, where you can set your own rates and teach adults. Some teachers have also had success finding higher-paying positions on platforms like OutSchool, where you can design your own courses. Taking a look at indeed reviews could give you an idea of what other teachers are saying about various online teaching companies. Hopefully, you'll find something that fits your experience and pay expectations soon!
