I just spoke to a friend of mine on the phone who has a master's degree in psych and is in charge of research analysis for a company (I like to think she knows what she is talking about). She told me that with an MA in psych, I could start teaching part time at a community college at about 25k per year, but eventually work my way up to full time with tenure, at 50-80k per year. She said that the really hardworking ones make up to 100k per year.
To me, this seemed to be too high to be correct. If you can make a 100k teaching at a CC with a general MA, then why arnt more people doing it? IS she accurate in her estimates? If so, how competitive are teaching jobs at CC's?
This may be a great job to have until I am able to pursue a doctorate.
