Are counselors in universities regular teachers?

College counselors are not formal teachers. There are great differences between them in the nature of work, recruitment conditions, salary and treatment. Therefore, although both university counselors and university teachers work in universities, they have some essential differences and cannot be confused.

Expand the difference between university counselors and formal teachers.

I. Nature of work

The job of university teachers is to give lectures, including the design, teaching, correcting homework and answering questions of public basic courses, professional basic courses and professional courses. Counselors are mainly responsible for guiding students' values and life management. It can be said that the nature of their work is essentially different. One is in charge of study and the other is in charge of life.

Second, the recruitment conditions

The recruitment conditions of university teachers are strict, and at least master's degree or above will be considered, while some schools and majors must have doctoral degree or above to qualify for registration. The recruitment conditions of university counselors are relatively loose, and generally only require bachelor degree or above. However, because college counselors are mainly responsible for guiding students' values, many schools require party member status when recruiting counselors.

Third, wages and benefits.

The salary of university teachers is higher than that of counselors. In addition to the basic salary, there are also class fees, and time is relatively free. When there is no class, you can move freely, while college counselors need to work all day and deal with all kinds of trivial matters from time to time.
