relief teachers do everything - Teacher Ministry of Education Singapore Employee Review
- 1.028 Mar 2023TeacherFormer Employee, more than 3 yearsSingapore
Pros
none really, we do everything especially if you have teaching experience
Cons
we do invigilating and marking of tests and assignments and run the classes and deal with students and deliquent homework. students do not respect you like their own homeroom teachers and try to derail classes by causing distraction. the department still want you to chase down homework from students, do marking on tests and assignment, teach classes and full time is handing 4 to 5 classes or more of students assignment and grading if you don't do it, you aren't invited back to be a relief teacher on call With covid, alot of teachers disappear due to sick leave and the relief are there to fill in. we do not get vacation paid time off, bonuses or holidays some teacher gently strong arm you to "help" out, you end up doing all the work due to pity for the unaware kids and parents, the teachers had the audacity to ask you to dowork because they know you won't say no, and other teachers are aware but won't stand out to say anything. I get paid just $1000 gross BEFORE DEDUCTIONS to do work equal to a full time MOE teacher
