profs don't even make that much money, they make around the same as a highschool teacher

Are you kidding me? High school teachers barely make past 50k a year, with years of experience. Prof's, on average, make much more than that. A prof with 15+ years of experience would make up to 90k per year. Big difference.

This isn't true; not in Ontario anyway.

Gym teachers make the same as the others. I'd love to be a gym teacher, they don't do much anyhow.

One of my 7th grade teachers used to make 38K. She was broke. She used to take the bus to school lmao. I had another teacher in high school who took the bus to school too. Teachers aren't eatin like that man. I mean, they make enough money to live but it's not a job you get into for the money. When I go back to my old H.S, I always talk to my teacher about that.

Both my parents are school teachers. My mom teaches elementary, and she makes $79K. My dad teaches high school and he makes 90K+ (granted, he is a department head, otherwise he'd be making 79K like my mom). And they teach in Sarnia, so their friends who teach in toronto who went to school with them are making more (higher living costs, etc). I've had this conversation with them before.

Yeah but how long have your parents been teaching for?

Of course they should be making 70 and 80K but there probably in there late 40's and 50's.

Im talking about teachers who are just starting. They start at 30-35K and move up.

Making 40K when you're in your 30's isn't that good to me. Like I said, teachers aren't eating like that. They don't make good money like that until there late in there careers and even that isn't much.

aw, all the frenchies.

i took French at York (keele), just to contiune with the language, considering I had already done 12 years .... and my Prof could not speak the language properly.

i was SO turned of it. he kept trying to tell me that it was "DE VIN" not "DU VIN". He pronounced 'UN', "URRN". that's when i stopped listening to his ass and started teaching myself.

i'm not disagreeing with you there at all. i was disagreeing with chuck who said with years of experience they make 50K, thats all. your post is almost right on. but someone who makes 70K in sarnia equates to almost 100K in toronto...just normal economics really...
