As a French teacher - who needs a job teaching French - I find this sort of thing interesting:

Berlitz language lessons cost around $70/unit (45 minutes)

Berlitz language instructors are paid around $8/unit ($12/hour)

Wonder if it's line with other language academies.

Quite a discrepancy. I think if I needed a teacher, I'd put a poster on a telephone pole outside the building.

By the way, the TurkeyGal teaches there, so I'm pretty sure about the pay. Don't know about lesson prices though. That's pretty hush-hush. Anyone from Berlitz with different information or an explanation is welcome to space to correct the record. E-mail me at the link on the side.

Update: Doublechecking, I came across this, this, this, this (unrelated, but a funny joke at the end) and this. Strange how few sites that weren't operated by Berlitz had anything complimentary to say about teaching for them.
