National Pay Scale. According to industry website Teacher Portal, the average starting salary for teachers was $33,950 as of 2011. During the first one to four years, average pay increased to $35,873, while teachers with five to nine years of experience reported annual salaries that averaged $41,391.irst-year teachers in New Jersey averaged $38,408 per year, those in Illinois reported starting salaries averaging $37,500, and New York ranked fifth with an average starting pay of $37,321.
Even so, it is the Districtâs intent to provide a salary increase as soon as possible. We take issue with the figures tallied in todayâs Daily News, as they are incorrect and/or incomplete. New teachers with regular credentials earn beginning minimum salaries of $45,637 per year, $5,000 ahead of the California average.dding $70,000, and $9,744, plus $16,432 for health and welfare benefits, the average District teacher earns $96,176 in total compensation. This is more than $11,000 higher than the figure the Daily News story cited as the average teacher salary in California.
