I teach at a small conversation school from Mon thru Friday. Am required to be at school 5 hours per day teach. So I teach 25 hours per day.

At the end of my day, I am tired, however it will also depend on the day. Some days are easier than others due to the type of students. Loud classes with children are tough. Adult classes with students that freely talk are easy.

I know university jobs, instructors have it much easier at about 15 hours per week and lot's of paid holidays and other incentives.... Ahh, wish I could get such a job.
