I am in a very part time teaching job. I get paid for the number of hours I teach-nothing more. Anything extra has to be done in my own personal time.
I am getting asked to come in increasingly more and more on my days off. My job requires specific skills so others can't really step in. Yet things that need these skills are always scheduled on my days off or times I don't teach (ie mornings not afternoons). I have a little one at home so then have to provide extra child care (which I have to pay for but then don't get paid).
I spend huge amounts of time doing work stuff at home and in school with no more pay or recognition. It's like being an invisible volunteer at times! If you try and discuss pay then it seems as if you are being unreasonable.
It seems to be expected that if you are a part time teacher you are valued less but expected to do more. Does anyone else find this?
