You seem so desperate to post ur detail, even though not working nor having salary.

We will welcome you again once you start work & more mature.

i ask few of my IT friends working in sg, apparently most of them were in the same range..well, the offered salary range can't really attract me. i was offered the job by a head hunter, so i expect the offer should at least match what i got here (no currency conversion).

Grossly underpaid work ~

How? Work part time as tuition teacher can earn RM15k?
The students pay RM500 every month?

Different industry, different working hours, different benefits, different prerequisite lah.

i dont have degree, didnt do sales @ own a business but still earn 2.7k when i was a fresh grad.. dont expect with degree you can easily get 2-3k..

Agreed on the bolded part.

news report - RM3000 is considered urban poor. I believe many fall into this category lol.

That's why we are all considered underpaid also.

I am not sure how exactly the figure work out...for the tuition teaching cousin...


Lets say 1 student per subject is RM35. Each student take 3 subjects on average.
that's RM105 per student

i class, he can accomodate 30 students-> 40x105= RM4200
3 classes= 3 xRM4200= RM 12600?

rmb? he is popular...



the point here is to tell u all that a tuition teacher and fish monger can be very damn rich.....

I feel like want to change job now.

i think it's household income ... but if you are the sole breadwinner (both parents retired) ... and have a couple of siblings still schooling ... doesn't own a house yet ... then ... yeah ...

teaching is not difficult... trust me, i tried it..

my cousin always ask me to teach along with him at tuition but i dont want even the $$$ is good..
i simply dont have the heart to cheat ppl's money... its "pian chiak" and tipu makan....

If students' result show improvement, then yes; else the parents will come back to you.
Maybe the students in Johor are smarter?

RM3000 not even enough to pay mortgage and car loan

a lot of ppl just teach tuition can become $$$ include music as well @house to house

I teach piano from house to house.
It's tiring and time consuming.

that is your financial management problem especially on car ...

Teaching music won't really will be rich. Only if you are famous. Then can demand higher fees & alot of student.

Remember teaching music is mostly one on one. How many student you have in a day it count.

If average RM100 fees per student per month for 30 minute. 1 day average teach 6hours for 5 day.

6hours/0.5hr X RM100 X 5days = RM6000.

But you must have 60 student to make up the figure. Which quite few teacher have that much student.
Average teacher will only have 20-40 student at most.

If you teach house from house, the teaching time will be half.

Teaching house to house will be included petrol charge according to students' house. But no doubt the time allocated for house-to-house teaching will be gone down to half. However, piano fee for classical music is standard, I'm doubt if there's any possibility to demand higher according to teachers' fame.

But yes, the higher qualification the teacher is, the higher fees he/she can demand. Just like normal Grade 8 teacher and Diploma holder teacher charge differently.

Music teacher teaches pop music, jazz music other than classical music, and pop/jazz music fees are double more expensive than classical music!

Is it that teaching Pop/Jazz are more expensive? Didn't realise that.

I'm use to be a Classical Guitar teacher, pop are quite easy, & no need special skill & technique. So I charge same rate as Classical. Only thing trouble is Pop song available for guitar are limited, you need to arrange it for student.

Anyway teaching music not as that easy & can earn a lot, my friend full time teaching Violin in Yamaha, most student are beginning to Grade 3. Although the school assign all Violin student to him, but still only have 20+ student. Teach during Thursday to Sunday. So far the paid not >2k.
