TEFL to DELTA upgrade for Italy - worth it?

Hi folks!

My background - got a TEFL, taught in Italy years ago, loved the work and the country. Came home, got a "real job," really disliked it, but made some decent money.

I got a year of classroom experience first time around, after getting my TEFL.

I'm looking to get back to teaching and of course the issue in Italy is the pay.

It seems to be all advertised as €1,200 to €1,500/month roughly.

For a first year, fair enough. But as years go by, that would be tough.

Would getting a DELTA significantly up by pay by 20%, 30% or even 50%?

Or is it mostly about networking to get into the right workplace, be it a university or something else?

Italy would be a world of difference on €2,000 or €2,500/month vs. on the edge with €1,500.

TIA!
