This depends on how many times a week they teach. Most Taekwondo instructors either do it as a hobby or those that are professional are self employed so the more classes they teach the more money they earn.
I'll put in my part based on a typical part time instructor in one of my schools. I pay my instructors between $10-$15 per 40 minute class as Independent Contractors based on their degree. Additional bonuses are tied to student motivation, pass/fail stats and student attendance. If you're talking about making the jump to Professional School owner make sure you have a STRONG business background- good luck!
Well, it depends when you work. I used to be in taekwondo, and i had 3 instructors. be prepared to split with 3 people. and u have to b a blackbelt
They seldom get a salary unless they work for a large, successful Dojang or organization. Most school owners make their money by the number of students they bring into their dojang. Some have other jobs that they use to make money, while others are full time school owners and survive just from the profits of the school. If the school is successful, the Sabeom (school Master) might pay some of the Black Belt Instructors to teach some of the classes.
The answer might vary depending on what you mean by "expected demand." You can look at it from three different perspectives.
First, there is the expected demand that emanates from the upper echelon in your chain of command. Technically speaking, one does not become a fully certified instructor until you reach the Black Belt level, and that takes an instructor before you, to teach you what is expected of a student to become an expert. However, earning a degree of the Black Belt is not enough to be a teacher. One must be further trained in the skill of teaching, and the unique aspects of instructing the Martial Art of Taekwondo.
In addition to the expectations of your own instructor (at that point, most likely a master), there are also the demands of any organization with which your school might be affiliated. These things usually pertain to the thorough knowledge and understanding of the material you intend to teach, and keeping your own membership, and certification current, as well as the records of any students under your charge. You would be expected to follow any association rules, guidelines and criteria for teaching, which would likely include the honesty and integrity of being a decent person in your daily life, a good honest business person in dealing with your clients, and to represent yourself, your school, your organization, and the art of Taekwondo with honor.
The second source of expected demands should come from yourself. After being taught what is the right way to train, teach, and behave, it is up to you to have the integrity to stick with that at all times. You should have the pride in your own accomplishments and reputation to constantly strive to be the best you can be, seeking further knowledge, ensuring accuracy of that knowledge, and ever improving skills. You should also place upon yourself the highest standard of accountability for your own actions. Think right, speak right, and do right!
The third aspect is that of the client, and general public. Your students are going to expect you to know what you are talking about, and be adequately trained and skilled at conveying that information. It is often helpful to be able to demonstrate what you are teaching with a clearly advanced physical skill whenever possible, and not get lazy or sloppy, but if unavoidable physical limitations prevent you from showing what you know, then teaching can be done through the art of skillful communication, and the use of advanced students to show for you.
You should have the honesty and integrity to never forge documents or certifications for yourself, or for your students. Never mislead them as to your own past accomplishments, nor to the validity of the rank certificates you provide. You have both a legal and moral obligation to your students to treat them with respect, and to never abuse the student/instructor relationship. It is advisable that you get to know each student, and their individual needs, and goals for training, and do your best to help them meet those goals. However, your students should be made aware that the Martial Art is a long standing educational curriculum that teaches according to a unique philosophy, and that the Korean art of Taekwondo is specifically designed with required criteria that should not be altered by beginner instructors, nor at the whim of the student.
Beyond that of your clientele, your local community, and the world at large expects a certain amount of responsibility from those who teach a potentially deadly art of unarmed combat. It is to your advantage for your own reputation, to instill within your students the importance of adhering to the rules of proper Taekwondo conduct both inside and outside of the dojang. Your students should be repeatedly reminded that their continued training is contingent upon them obeying all applicable laws wherever they are, and conducting themselves in a manner that is polite, courteous, and respectful of others.
Students should be taught to never misuse their skills, and as their instructor, you should set a living example as well as enforce the rules by keeping aware of their social lives through contact with parents, teachers, employers, friends and relatives. This is not only your prerogative, and right as their Taekwondo instructor, it is your duty, and responsibility. Those teachers who shirk this responsibility, and claim that it is none of their business, were not taught correctly in the first place, or choose to be irresponsible of their own volition. That is not the way of Taekwondo, and if it is not right - - don't do it. You shouldn't give someone a loaded gun, and not teach them how to use it safely, nor hold them accountable for misusing the weapon.
You shouldn't continue to teach someone how to become more and more skilled at being able to hurt people, if they continue to demonstrate a blatant disregard for the laws, and the rights of others. You will not be aware of these transgressions, unless you make an effort to monitor your student's behavior outside the dojang. You will not be a responsible instructor if you do not choose to enforce the rules of behavior on your own students. These are the demands expected of a Taekwondo instructor, and they should be the expectations you demand of yourself.
There is no set salary for Taekwondo instructors. Most Taekwondo schools are run as independent business that might be affiliated with a larger organization for training and credentials, but the finances of each school will vary depending on the number of students enrolled, tuition and other fees charged, and the cost of running the business in that particular location. School owners only survive off the profits they can generate, and often times make very little money unless they are located in a large city, or have a extremely large number of students.
Most instructors within a Taekwondo school teach voluntarily as part of their training, or to help support the success of the school. However, sometimes an assistant instructor might be permitted to retain a portion of tuition from any students they teach, particularly if it is in an annexed program at a separate location from the main dojang (school). Some highly successful schools are able to hire instructors, and pay them a salary. The future of Taekwondo is likely to create a demand for qualified and certified instructors who will be paid comparably to other teaching jobs.

Yes, Tae Kwon Do is a very good martial; however, if you are trying to choosing a marital art to study yourself, the more important consideration is the quality of the instructors. There are good taekwondo instructors and bad taekwondo instructors. Shop around and find a great instructor. Another factor is whether you want to learn a more offensive martial art or not. Tae Kwon Do was made for defence. It can be using in offence, but there are many close contact techniques that will help you defend yourself. Karate is a more offensive form. Tae Kwon Do also uses more of the feet than other martial arts. There are many forms of kicks. There are less hand movements. The hand usually only do punches and blocks.
