[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Would you pay another parent to do this if your kids are roughly the same age as theirs? How much? If I could cover a quarter of my salary, I'd consider taking a sabbatical to do this.

I have a Masters in Education but have not worked in a school since internship (went into edu policy and then into an adjacent policy field). [/quote]

I paid a FFX teacher $20/hr to supervise the APS curriculum in the spring for lower elementary. If I go in with a pod for fall I imagine we’ll be paying $30-40/hr for 3-4 kids. So if it was my kid and yours and you were hosting, I’d pay $15-20/hr, on the books, through a nanny payroll type company. [/quote]

That’s really low. I pay teenage babysitters that much.  [/quote]

Yeah, no kidding. What unicorn would take this job? [/quote]
I would. I am a single mom laid off and thinking about [b]using all 39 weeks of UI, plus earning a little cash on the side of the $600 is not extended.[/b]
I am going to supervise my kid’s online learning via his public, make lunch for him, etc. 
I might offer outside play in lieu of online PE, and maybe a field trip every Wednesday when learning is asynchronous. 
It will really depend on what the other parents prefer. 
I would be super happy with $15-20/[b]hr cash.[/b]
Kids won’t have to wear masks, too. 
My only concern would be to find a family that is not litigious if god forbid someone gets sick, and not super strict on masks (in the household) and protocols. [/quote]

Well this would be unemployment fraud and tax fraud.  I was unaware of that plot point in Mary Poppins.  [/quote]

I hope they will extend the federal benefit and there will be no need. I would of course prefer to concentrate on my own child but if I am left to teach him and survive on $1800/mo, what can I do?[/quote]

Do what you need to do. The rich do worse.
If you'd like other options you can teach English online, sell your lesson plans, create your own courses.

When I used to do all 3 I made an extra $2,500 a month but it burnt me out at only 24 and I finally paid off all my graduate school loans lol.
Anyway you'd be surprised at the number of jobs for certified teachers online, some are better than others just depends on your skills and what you like to do.

I still sell my courses and lesson plans and since I'm not updating them I'm only making an extra $800 a month but it still certainly helps. Once you put in the work you have 'effortless' stream(s) of income.[/quote]
