Hi guys,

I would like to hear your opinion. I've recently got a job offer for a teaching job (diploma level), at a quite established private school. I was asked about my expected salary and I quote 5K.

A little background of myself. I have slightly more than 1 year of teaching experience. But have 6 years of relevant industry experience. I also have a bachelor degree and couple of years of overseas working experience. I am in the media industry, btw.

I've heard that tertiary school values industry experience, so I am wondering if my expected pay is considered high/low or reasonable? Furthermore, taken into consideration that the school is not some ikan bilis school, I think should adjust my salary expectation accordingly.

Please let me know what you think? I would especially like to hear from others who are currently teaching and with my same years of experience, whether this amount is reasonable.

Thank you!
