I think John Stossel did a report about how teachers are actually paid very well, more than many lawyers, per hour. When he confronted some of them they got really mad because I think they wanted a raise.

I doubt that. John Stossel is hardly a reliable source of anything.

About $150 per hour, PhD economist.

How many hours a week do you work?

Anywhere from 15-25 billable and 30-60 total. Of course if I don't work I don't get paid.

I'm the teacher who posted -- I think I earn a fine hourly rate.

However, as I said, I do not need to bring work home to meet professional expectations at work. Many teachers do need to work an extra 2 hours or more each day, which would bring their hourly rate down considerably.

I work 192 days x 3 hours each day = 576 hours/year. I bring almost no work home.

$33,000/576 = $57/hour

Shouldn't you really include commuting time as you add up actual working hours? That's assuming that you commute solely for the purpose of empoyment and aren't just driving around because you enjoy driving.

No.

PP, why do you think you should get more?

$60/hour.

Hey, I should get more...!

About $9.50/hr. Completely underemployed even though I have worked hard to earn my Master's plus more.
