STAY IN THE SECONDARY SCHOOL, START UP PhD ASAP... BY THE TIME YOU ARE DONE,YOU SURELY WILL GET A BIGGER OFFER IN A BIGGER UNIVERSITY.. YOUR TARGET SHOULD BE TO START AND FINISH UP THE PhD... Those allowances will also go a long way in sustaining you in the course of your PhD pursuit... Kudos.... 2 Likes |

I am not sure you need anyone to instruct you Oga teacher. It is your destiny, if you are really university stuff, no one should guide you about career prospects. I am sorry if I sound rude, a confused person is not yet ripe to be a University teacher, so I will advise you spend another 15 years in your secondary school before accepting the university offer. You are getting 96K + 58K and your head is swelling, poor you! Very soon you will get Secondary School Grant...Mweh. Maybe I should ask you whether your discipline teaches senses or if the secondary school is your inheritance. If the secondary school is your destiny so be it but if you are going to pursue university teaching in the future I am very sure that your classmate will be your VC. A word they say is enough for the wise! |

Hello house. Your girl needs a teaching job. NCE/B.ED. I teach English/ literature. I graduated last year and Corona stalled NYSC. I need something else. Also, I'm soliciting for someone that will link me to a good market where I can buy a bale of Okrika bags, first grade at a good price. My last market was Nigeriafied. I seriously lost money.

[quote author=Emir8 post=94674583]Hello Nairalander, I really need advice concerning making a choice between the two jobs before me. My family members are divided over which job I should choose. I'm working in a highbrow secondary school and my start up salary was N75,000. After three years, my salary is now N96,000.00. I just got a lecturing job with a private university and my gross salary according to the appointment letter is N88,000.00. My father wants me to continue with my teaching in the secondary school but my mother and fiancee are pressuring me to write acceptance letter to the university and accept the offer. There's no time, both the university and the secondary school will be resuming on 12/10/2020 and I have to make a choice between now and Thursday. My fiancee is already calling herself "wife of a lecturer" and threatening that she will quit the relationship if I did not accept the university offer. My mind is in the secondary school because there is free lunch and N150,000.00 housing allowance per year, but the university doesn't give lunch and housing allowance. Should I go and become Mr. Lecturer and sacrifice my secondary school benefits?[/quote ] Don't be stupid please stay in the secondary school. Are you insane ? |

This should be your personal decision without any outside influence. But, you can't make a career out of teaching in a secondary school no matter the pay. I believe in the long run teaching in a university would look good on your resume and it would open more opportunities to maybe become a part time lecturer in other universities. Warm regards ! |

DontBullshitMe: didn't u see where he said he intends going for his PhD? most of u close ur eyes to read. @OP: please follow ur dad's advise and kindly upgrade urself as u do. you will get a state or federal government university upon completion. as for ur GF,she can go to hell for all I care if she's not pleased with your decision. |

[color=#006600][/color] Emir8: Stay in the secondary school, get your PhD, then apply for federal university. That's what I will do if I am in your shoes. |
Re: Secondary School Teaching Vs Lecturing: Which Of These Two Jobs Should I Choose? by heskeyw(m): 3:23pm On Oct 07, 2020 |
Mehn it's hard to choose one but for me, I will move to the University. It will boost ur CV, stay there for the 3 years, apply for PhD. In the future, if u want to be employed as a lecturer in a federal University in the future , it will be easier for you as a former lecturer in a private university, than as a secondary school teacher. The experience matters a lot, not the finance. |

kelechiodo:Thank you. The university sacked 90% of their staff during the covid-19 and want us to replace them. No job security at all there. |

Emir8:Oga, first of all l am very impressed with what you do. To the question above, from all your write ups, l deduced that you love your current job as a secondary School teacher, with a good pay, a hope for more increment, freedom to further your career(PhD), and also chances to grow in the system. I also know you have filled a space in the hearts of those kids you teach, which include their parents, and you can never tell the kind of connection that might spring out from it. Please keep your current job, do your PhD afterall good things don't end, and many opportunities will surely come and by then, you will not be confused or unprepared for it. During school mid term break and long vacation, you can still set up a business if you wish, like farming or buying properties that doesn't necessarily require your presence. Forget what your financee is saying, she is not after the future or career improvement, she is after the social status that comes with being a lecturer than a secondary School teacher. But what they don't know is that ,there is nothing low about being a secondary School teacher in a prestigious school, it is a privilege for few people, please do the right and I wish you the best. |

Emir8: Remain where you are. You could only consider that lecturing job if "it was a federal university." Your fiancée has spoken like a typical confused woman. |
