Hey PinkNeuron, hope your feeling better! My funding is exactly the same. There are usually further restrictions, for example my uni says we can teach no more than 6 hours per week, which over 22 teaching weeks equals 132 hours, then they also add time it takes to mark essays/any other assessment to make the 150. The teaching is normally linked to the school your research institute is affiliated to, and it's normally acting as a tutor / lab demonstrator to first year undergrads, occassionally there's opportunity to teach higher up or to lecture and convene modules. One thing you need to check though is whether the teaching will actually be in your specialism or whether you'll just be given the stuff none of the permanent staff want to do. In which case it can be more trouble than it's worth (I ended up lecturing stuff I know nothing about!).
