"Incidentally teachers are paid so poorly that many are taxi teachers.
They teach in one school in the morning, grab a taxi and teach in
another in the afternoon."

Teachers in Brazil cannot pay for taxi run. They can hardly pay for bus
travels. In big cities they usually have to pay for 4 and even 6 bus
travels. Most of them receive only + - U$ 250,00 for 20 hours of labour.
