Re: What did teaching teach you?

When I was a student, I hated teachers and as a result, never wanted anything to do with their career. Our teachers would try to show us how wrong we were, but it was in vain. Little did I know that sometime later in future, I would sail in the same boat, and interestingly in the same school. In my ...

Re: smart ways to deal with rude people!

Those are pretty good tips you have. On my part, as I was learning customer service, the procedure of dealing with rude people was summarized into four simple steps. We call it the L.A.S.T formula. L in this case stands for listen. Any time a person is communicating, they are trying to drive a point...

Re: Trouble with the Law

The law is meant to set us free. How? By knowing our limitations and rights, the we can avoid going overboard, hence landing in trouble. However, as a tourist, visiting another country for just a short time for leisure, it would be pretty inconvenient having to revise the whole constitution of your ...

Re: Dealing with difficult bosses

According to the Christian bible, Proverbs 15;1 says that a polite/ gentle answer turns a way anger, but harsh words cause it to flare. The buddha also teaches this, where he says that in order to attain the noble eight foldpaths, one of the moral virtues you need is right speech. Therefore, while d...

Re: Night life for tourists

Safety comes first in every field of life. Therefore it's something to be held with high integrity. In order to stay safe as a tourist, in Thailand or even any other place at night, I believe it's good to know where to run to incase of emergency. It's good to know the nearest police station, the nea...

Re: What do you think it's the hardest thing about moving to another country?

It's said that east or west, home is best. This means that any other place apart from home has a defect. Whether from country to country or even from one city to another within the same country, the burden is the same. However, I think depends on your personality skills. For example, I have a sister...

Re: What's the youngest group of students you've taught?

Personally, I have taught a group of students awaiting to do their finals to join high school. What I can say is being a teacher is not a career, it's a calling. I really loved the job. However, I had a problem making the clever students realise that even those who do not learn fast, also have an eq...

Re: Is nightlife allowed for a serious teacher?

Some of my friends, including I had a very simple question. Why would a teacher, teach us about how much we shouldn't drink and smoke, yet he himself would be doing the very same things at night, after work? If there is someone that students look up to in life, its their teacher. Therefore I believe...
