Nice gig if you can get it. And if you're personable, presentable and have the right credentials you have a good chance of landing one of these plum positions in the Age of Coronavirus where the uber-wealthy must bypass conventional prestigious private schools for private educators.

When I worked at Citibank, back in the 90's, we had a contract underwriter. She was living the life, IMO. Single, no kids, traveled, put up in an extended stay hotel, leased car paid by the company, and paid handsomely.


There always seems to be opportunity, in any given situation. Kudos to those who see it.

“We have to get results with these kids,” Hannan said. “That’s a great deal of pressure on us.” But he added that “I’m working with kids who really need me and I make a significant difference for those children, and it’s what I want to do with my life, so it’s great."

More realistically $200k- $400k / yr while you are placed in service = $100 -$200/hr. That's reasonable, especially spread between 4+ wealthy families. And a viable option with the cost and burden of a good private school. One of my kids did somewhat similar by ski instructing the children of wealthy parents so the parents could spend the day heli-skiing. They really got some great perks, including paid international travel to exotic ski areas while accompanying family various places. A good and effective teacher could easily do the same. Some might say.... "Beats the classroom". Others.... Not so keen. Wanderlust teachers I know were quite happy following DOD schools around the globe.
