You&#x27;re radically overestimating how much teachers are paid.  I lectured at a Canadian university and was paid $7k per semester long course with about 100 students.  I could maybe handle 2 courses per semester (after some time to get my lectures dialed in), which works out to $42k&#x2F;year for an engineer with a graduate degree.<p>If anyone is QQing to the bank it&#x27;s not your lecturer.
