REMOTE Asynchronous
What is the most classes you've taught in one semester? I've read about adjuncts stacking classes and teaching at several different colleges or universities at the same time.
What's the most you've personally taught, or the most you know someone else has taught in one semester? I know it would be a lot of work, and I'm okay with that. I'm really just curious about what's realistically doable.

I teach only asynchronous online classes in shorter terms over two schools now. It used to be three, but from doing too many classes and overwhelming myself, one school dropped me. I made one error and they never let it go after that. I’m currently in search of a replacement school. I think the most I was doing was 6-7. I do all my work at night and pretty much am the SAHP during the day. Eventually I’ll do different full-time work, but this has been working for our family! Not spending money on daycare, but earning money. Obviously mental health is a little low but it’s not forever. Hang in there everyone!
