We establish a pay scale to reward instructors who do take the time and spend the money to get certified and stay certified.
Pay scale for instructors: $13-14 an hour no certification no experience, $14-16 experienced or certified, and $16+ for certified and experienced.
We know that it takes work to prepare for your classes so we pay a total of 20 minutes extra for each class that you teach, for example: 45min class at $14/hr = 105 minutes, so your pay is $15.
