i agree with alien that at some point the grade and exam system, which labels good and bad students according a very specific frame, then later the kapitali sm system, is very annoying for students and does not encourage study.
In qujing minority high school, the kids were often complaining how much work they have to do.
We could talk about the psychosomatical diseases linked to that, sufferings that go even to suicide.
As such i have put over sixty to every student in the class,lolo
I would like to discuss readers experience teaching english and what pedagogical lessons they might have drawn from them.
My first job was in a kindergarten, but my employer was another institution. I found the kids pretty hyperactive and excited,so at first i tried calm them down, talking to them one by one and starting with alphabet. I was bit surprised the teachers were kind of hard, beating (softly) the kids head,pushing them back to their seat. Then I received sms at end first week saying I was fired. i asked why, they said because I didn't play enough games.
In this there was no pedagogical dialogue with me, they didn't tell they wanted more games. So I had bad opinion how they considered pedagogy both with kids and teachers.
Second job, lasted a semester in Qujing minority high school. At first we were supposed teach TOEFL but we found it was too difficult for their levels. Indeed, how can qujing kids be familiar with English? Also classes were often cancelled last minutes, it was very difficult make a schedule a month ahead. Finally the cancelled the program for this semester.
Here, I found that pedagogical objectives were not clear and there was no clear scheduling.This could also bring a larger discussion of a pedagogical system based on grades and not on studies proper, disheartening student or preparing em to b anoter brick in kapitali sm system.
So I looked for another job. I was hired two times but at last minutes they cancelled the programs.
So I get bit tired this system. I should go on begging? Also it seems there is no concept of a contract, it seems the teacher is the only one has duties, but he can fired like capitalist dollanytime.
I guess I am bit negative here, so I d like hear ur positive and negative experiences. I used be philosophy teacher, but this is kind of hopeless to teach, though I proposed several English school to teach philosophies in English, a good way to study English and Pilosophies I thought. But this might bring me only to the streets.
Interesting debate about subjectivity and objectivity.
So how would u define good food ?
What is good for the eater ? For his health ? For his,say, karma or ethics ?
Then i guess it is quite selfcentered and does not question the happiness and freedom of animals or ecological issues.
That is why i keep asking about animals life and death for chinese fast foods.
I have studied a bit the question in the west so i would like have more details about animals reproduction (artificial insemination, no natural sexuality?), life and death in china

Burger King announced its decision to eliminate the use of gestation crates and hen battery cages in its US supply chain by 2017. Responding to mounting consumer pressure, the fast-food chain has pledged to improve its animal-welfare policies, building on welfare reforms implemented in 2007
