*shuts up*
21 hours of classes a week.. I take it that is a fulltime job then? In Holland a fulltime job is either 38 or 40 hours.. does that mean that you've got 20 hours of preparation time?...

The same has in Holland, here you teach about 21 hours of 60 minutes (meaning 27-28 lessons). The rest is for preparing, examination, meetings with staff and collegues, extra curriculum activities, making new lessons, expertise schooling etcetera. A complete workweek is 42,5 hours for a teacher, working 40 weeks a year. Because of this teachers have 12 weeks holiday of which 7 in summer (but they've earned them theirselves with working more hours in the other weeks).

If you ask me, teachers are pretty under-paid in Holland. Its definitely not a job that one picks for the money, especially considering that besides the classes you teach, you spent loads of time on preparing your lessons, correcting exams, going to courses and meetings.
The same counts for teachers in Turkey. Its hard to say what a well paid job is in turkey because you will measure it to the waiges in your own country. If a teachers makes 1000ytl a month, it wont be a rich life:
Bakalım, you have two children and a wife to take financially care of. 500YTL goes to rent per month, that is already half your salary. Water and electricity together, will be around 45 YTL a month. I cant name an amount for the food, but consider that at least one of the two children goes to Dershane to prepare for ÖSS. If you count in that amount (dershanes are pretty expensive), not much ofr your monthly salary will be left. And ofcourse as a family you want to put money aside too, because you never know what happens.
That is the scary thing about Turkey: in Holland, when you are 30 and have a job, you can at least guess a bit how your life will look like after 15 years. You can plan buying a bigger house, plan saving money for a holiday, think about promotions in your job. In turkey, it is very hard to tahmin et your future, because nothing is sure. The inflation is high and a well-paid job rare.
