Although teachers should be respected, teachers need to be respectful also.

Sunday, October 25th, 2009
On October 20th, in Yunan Shuanglong Center Primary School, three first grade kids were punished by making them take off all their clothes and stand in front of the whole class, because they didn’t bring their own clean tools to clean the classroom as the teacher requested.  After it happened, these three kids are very depressed and afraid to go to school.  Although the teacher had apologize to the students and their parents, it was not enough for them to forgive her.
On October 23th, the Bureau of Education withdrew her qualification as a teacher.  She can not teach in any school or participate in any teaching activity form now on.  The Bureau of Education also requested her to go to the students’ home and apologize.  The schoolmaster went to apologize to the students as well, and arranged a new teacher for this class.  The class finally went back to normal.
The teacher plays a significant role in the society.  The quality of the  teacher determines the quality of education.  A quality education determines the future of the nation.  Teachers have such a great duty of cultivating and teaching students, therefore, they should first set up good moral examples.  What this teacher has done gives extremely bad impact to the students.  Even when students made mistakes, their dignity should be respected.

Quality Control

Wednesday, May 14th, 2008

If you were a teacher and only 1% of your classed passed, I’m sure you would be a little worried. No imagine how the parents in Peru feel when the government’s compulsory tests on public teachers were released. Only about 1% passed the criteria of 14/20 out of several thousand teachers! As a teacher in a private school in Lima, it’s no wonder that so many parents try to get their kids in institutions rather than really on the public schooling services. But this makes me worried for the children that can’t afford better schooling. Starting off with such a disadvantage is so heartbreaking, I just hope the government can educate the teachers so they can educate the children.

Imagine how powerful America would be if we paid Teachers a good salary!

Thursday, February 14th, 2008

When you consider that the most of the brightest pupils go off to industry to earn money, one has to imagine how strong America would be if those people were enticed to teach!  It is a shame that America falls behind many nations when it comes to pre-University learning.  This is not an opinion.  This is a fact stated in many reputable journals.  We need to be able to encourage strong people to be our teachers for tomorrow’s leaders.
