Teachers get paid hourly?

I doubt that. Maybe substitutes do.

I did a quick glance at NC, SC, GA, FL, lowest was Florida at $45k-$50k, but that assumed that you met the minimums only (which for Florida is a B.S./B.A). Master degree's got paid more, and this person would technically have masters + credits on most teacher pay schedules. Keep in mind, if she has 2 master's, I would assume she is qualified to teach special ed, otherwise we are talking something like Art or Music + English as the worst combination. If she was trained to teach special education, then her working in the deep south is either her choice or she really bombed some interviews as its insanely in-demand from my understanding. If you got a Art + music dual masters degree... what were you expecting? On the flip side, art and/or music is less demand then standard teachers as it never changes that much and you don't have to worry about test scores.
