Depends what you're comparing it with, and it depends where you work. £15 per hour isn't too bad a rate, I reckon, and FE colleges pay more than that.

I'm currently trying to get my students to stop saying 'I'm loving it'. They are convinced that it is correct, and that McDonalds wouldn't use the phrase if it wasn't correct. They argue that I say it is wrong because I am anti-American. (Stative Verbs)

No, true. I used to make £15 at the place I taught. But you have to work a full timetable of hours to turn that into a good weekly/monthly salary, and i found there weren't many schools that offered that. ESOL pays better at £18 - £22 per hour, but you have to turn in heaps of horrible paperwork.
Anyway, back to the focus of this thread, which was about korekt speling, I beleeve.

It still works out a lot better than many of my friends, who also have degrees, and are earning less than £20k per year. Some London wages are shocking.
Of course, where I live I'm within walking distance of about fifty language schools (they're literally piled on top of one another in Whitechapel), so could get tons of work if I wanted it, so it would be easy for me to turn £15ph into a really good wage, and that's not the same for everyone. I've even had speculative offers from places who need teachers, offering even more money; there must be a shortage of decent English teachers with British accents, or something.
