TeacherPortal Salary Comfort Score

3rd

friendliest state for teachers

 

Michigan is third on our comfort scale because there are great lakes and good teacher salaries.  New teachers make an average starting salary of $34,724 and an average overall salary of $63,940.  

If you enjoy natural beauty,  snowy winters, and desire an affordable lifestyle, this northern state is a great place to become a teacher.

Teachers that have a Master's Degree live even better in Michigan - but you'll be comfortable with a standard teaching certificate if you don't mind a few less canoe and hunting trips or a cabin in the UP!
