For Retired Teachers, Professors, Instructional Assistants, Teacher’s Aides…?

how many of you are doing any type of work, volunteer or paid, in the teaching field?

I don’t mean reading to grandchildren (although that’s wonderful! of course), but outside the home, with other people?

About how many hours per week or month do you devote to that enterprise? Who do you teach? in what setting? Do you do it for pay or volunteer?

I’m just trying to get a general idea….

I am a student in Special Education at Michigan State University and I work as a substitute teacher during the summer – about 15 hours a week @ $8 an hour. I also volunteer during the school year for free about 3 hours a week at local schools. (Helping in a 1st grade classroom doing all type of work for the teacher.) I have been in many classrooms observing as well which really helps me gain perspective on good strategies verses poor/ineffective ones. I will be managing my own classroom soon so the more the experience the better well-rounded I will be.
