    Hi, I'm an adjunct of College Writing and ESL at a New England university. I also teach a non-traditional program in New Hampshire for human services professionals that consists of 1 week-end of 9-5 classes a month, with everything else online. Currently, I'm teaching 3 courses at the university for the summer semester and 2 courses in the hybrid program. Typically, I teach 4 courses at the university in the fall. Still, I'm not considered a "full professor" because I have only a master's, and am paid a base rate paid on each course taught, no benefits, what a colleague of mine calls "the Wal-Mart employee of academia."
    Fortunately, the university has a recreational center with a full gym that I can use.

    I'm an ESL teacher who teaches abroad (was in Russia last year and will either be in Russia or Andorra this coming school year - just waiting on some things to go through before I figure out where I'll be). I'll likely be doing some online English teaching once I get to wherever, to make some extra money on the side :)

    I appreciate online professors, as I'm about to finish my Master's in Education .. all online! It makes my life much easier when I can do what I like - teach abroad - while still being able to do my Master's :)

    I am a second year teacher. Last year, I taught sixth grade reading... this year I will be teaching both sixth grade reading and sixth grade social studies. I am actually looking forward to this year because I absolutely love social studies (I have a BA in History and minored in Geography).

    I have been out of school for three years, but I spent the first year out of school subbing since I couldn't find a full time job!

    What an amazing diversity of teachers here! I especially love seeing others who are doing it online. Teachers in the classroom have such busy schedules, so I'm very lucky that I can get away from my computer and to the health club for lunch time classes. It's taken away my "but I have no time to exercise" excuse.

    I teach in the early years. I am lucky to have a very active outdoor program. So if I don't get out and ride my bike at least I am able to get in a good walk for the day.

    That's one of the things I love about teaching online. I have students all around the U.S. and often abroad. I even had one student who was active duty military on a naval vessel! Obviously I cut him slack for delays due to internet connectivity problems.

    Hi, I have a few friends that teach online, Florida Virtual School, and love it, like you. I teach language arts in a Florida public middle school. I'll be back in school in a couple of weeks.
