There is always death and taxes; however, death doesn't get worse every year.
Ok.....
Followed this thread for a while, and I personally think that it may lead to some kind of confrontation...
Now that you all agree to disagree... Can we drop it...???
Sige na....
Yeperdoo, as they say in someplace west of the UK.
Anyway, not to add fuel to the fire, let me say to ervenescence, that indeed I do plan to help, have indeed helped already, and recently have had a meeting with the presidents of two universities here in Dumaguete. Despite the intention to help and improve, the realities are as stated in many, read not all, but many places.
You can't blame students, the situation is not static, and there are already several foreign teachers helping out here in both primary and university programs. My goal is to fit in to the undergraduate education program which I feel comfortable teaching.
They need more rigor in certain programs, the education program being the seat of all future issues, needs improving first. English skills are most important, computer literacy is lagging behind in public schools, and critical thinking skills are nearly absent here.
carry on
I also intend to do some teaching here in Dumaguete (if I am allowed to.)
As I have said before on this site, teaching is, in my opinion, the best job in the world and so if I can help some children here in my adopted home town, it will make me happy.
Al.
Then good for you RHB, I hope theres some more good people like you. See the problems and willing to help.
btw, my mother is a teacher in one of the local school in the province, I know shes a good teacher, she gave all her time to her work. Her unit hasn't got an electric fan for her to cool down. She never ask her students to pay for something just for her own benifit.
Peace out
