: $5000 - 25% federal + stat tax = $3750
: 16 week semester, that's $234/week after taxes
: How many hours in the week for a University lecturer:
: 3 hours / week in the classroom
: 6 hours / week preparing & reviewing lecture
: 3 office hours / week
: 2 hours / week writing homework assignments
: 1 hour / week grading homeworks w/ graders or reviewing grades
: 1 hour / week (prorated) writing exams
: 1 hour / week (prorated) grading exams w/ grader & TA
: 3 hours / week answering email from students
: 1 hours / week supervision of TA & grader

: 22 hour/week
: Indeed it's a half time job (50% appointment, essentially).
: So now, $234/week after taxes makes $10.60/hour.
