You don't receive any benefits as a full time instructor. The pay you receive is negligible in comparison to the amount the consumer is paying to the resort. The resort will overbook your classes making it impossible to give a great and respectable lesson. They overcharge for private lessons to make a larger profit off of your hard work without dishing out a reward.
