帶進1.6億營收 Airbnb房東 近10%是老師

Airbnb房屋短租公司最新調查顯示,利用該網站短期出租自家住宅或房間的房東,近十分之一表示自己的主業是老師;這或許是教師這一行生活大不易的另一指標。

Airbnb表示,該調查由房東自願提報,結果有4萬5000名房東是老師;另外還有3萬名房東說家裡有人在當老師。

大西洋月刊(The Atlantic)指出,教師正為工資停滯不前所苦,這麼多老師加入Airbnb當房東,應是藉此貼補家用。

Airbnb研究指出,「教師房東」帶來約1億6000萬元副業收入,每名教師房東收入約合6500元;收入的三分之一在夏季產生,但也顯示不少教師全年都在兼營Airbnb。

美國勞工統計局數據顯示,中小學教師平均工資每年5萬5000元至5萬7000元。

柏克萊加州大學經濟學教授阿勒格瑞托(Sylvia Allegretto)的2016年論文,目的在研究教師與其他領域大學畢業生的薪資差距,結果發現,和其他領域大學畢業生相比,教師薪資持續下降,差距愈來愈大。總體而言,教師每周工資比其他大學畢業生低約23%。

阿勒格瑞托指出,奧克拉荷馬州教師在罷工前,已有十年沒有加薪;「這意味著,隨著通貨膨脹,住房開銷和租金卻都在上漲,你每年都在減薪。」

6月分聯邦統計數據顯示,約五分之一教師有第二職業;教師身兼另一份工作的可能性是其他全職工作者的五倍。

不過,也有學者認為,Airbnb和優步(Uber)等公司正努力塑造他們的房東和司機都是「一般人」的形象,強調有很多教師來兼差,特別容易奏效。

Airbnb發言人諾提(Christopher Nulty)則指出,「我們當然不認為分享住家空間是解決問題的方案,但我們相信,它是教師的重要(生財)工具。」






Teacher Hosts Earned $160 Million Last Year on Airbnb

WEBWIRE – Wednesday, August 15, 2018

Today Airbnb is releasing a US Teacher’s Report highlighting the economic benefits that home sharing brings to teacher hosts across the country.

Last summer, teachers hosted more frequently and earned more than the typical host, providing a meaningful boost in income when class is not in session. In fact, teacher hosts earned roughly one third of their total annual earnings during the summer months alone.

The report includes estimates based on our annual host survey, which collects findings on the employment industries of Airbnb hosts, and defines our community of teachers as follows:    

  • 45,000 teacher hosts in the US
  • $160 million in total earnings for teacher hosts in 2017
  • $54 million in summertime earnings for teacher hosts in 2017
  • $6,500 in typical annual supplemental income earned by teacher hosts

For many teachers, being a host is a natural extension of the knowledge and compassion they have shared throughout their careers.

We talked to several of our teacher hosts about their experiences inside and outside of the classroom, and about how hosting has provided an exciting new way for them to connect with others.

“I taught English to Portland’s immigrants and refugees for 15 years. When I retired, I knew I would most miss meeting people from so many other countries and cultures, but now I still meet people from all over the world. Today there are no papers, tests, or quizzes. Instead the only assessment is how much my guests have enjoyed their stay. By opening our home, my husband and I have opened our lives.”

-Ann, Airbnb host in Portland, instructor at Portland Community College

“Since I have hosted many people visiting New York for the first time, I am happy to teach them about using the subways, which restaurants to try, and other helpful tips or recommendations. Part of that comes from being a native New Yorker, but that teacher side also enjoys sharing knowledge and experiences with others, and travel is a great way to do that”

– Ruth, Airbnb host in New York, special education consultant

“I retired in 2013 and had been used to a pretty active campus life. Joining Airbnb and then inviting people across the world into my home filled that void. I’m a natural teacher, and people who would come to my home would discover the unique life I’ve had. We would share and talk about some of those experiences, and it has been a very interesting, positive thing to be a part of.”

-Francois, Airbnb host in Vermont, retired lecturer at Middlebury College, and Officer Clemmons on Mister Rogers’ Neighborhood

Not only are there incredible teacher hosts on the platform, but Airbnb also offers schoolhouse-themed listings. So if you still have some summer reading to finish up before the break draws to a close and the first school bell rings, there’s no better place to stay than in these A+ worthy homes.

While they might not be able to help you with your homework, these hosts will be happy to show you what makes their homes and neighborhoods special.
