Location: Wellington, New Zealand
Company: UCol
Experience: Mid-level
Highest Level of Education: MA - Academic Program



Job Responsibilities
Assisting the students with the learning material provided, and occasionally helping them with other things like formatting a University essay.
Job Requirements
Do you mean what I did to get the job or what I teach? I learnt what I know by doing it. I have NZQA level 3 computing but that is really quite basic. We do not have any tests in the course I am teaching.
Uppers
Flexible hours. Manager not breathing down your neck.
Downers
Having to find something to do when it is quiet. Whims of students.
Lifestyle
Now that it has moved to Upper Hutt I have to travel 30 minutes each way twice a day by car, unlike when it was in Petone and I only had to walk for 10 minutes. Attempts at group social events have not worked well. Good flexible job, full or part time.
Compensation
began on $16 per hour. Now on $35 000 per year (about $16.85 per hour)
Advice to Jobseekers
Be happy, have fun.
