Today I had 2 English lessons at NOVA, and saw some familier students in the same lesson. Bofore starting lessons, we were chatting about some new teachers. In the NOVA, some teachers are very nice but the other some...especially new teachers.
Here's about the new teachers.
I sometimes wonder if they can't speak clearly and loudly, because a lot of students want to hear good pronouncation. I thought it's just personal way of speaking, and it's difficult to change the style as we can't do it in Japanese.
And when they had some students who have different levels for speaking, they have to make chances to speak every students. But they don't...
And more I also mind one teacher's behavior which we feel he is bored during lessons. Yawnning, looking at watch often, checking another room...and how to talk to students...
But today I knew they had opened a pay envelope while their students were reading some contents, and a lot of students have similer experiences with new teachers.
I'm sure if a teacher opened a salary envelope during the lesson, I can't keep quiet. As I tell the yawning teacher something to ask usually, I'll continue to say something I felt to them and how they behave nice as a teacher.
I don't know if their attitude is ok or impolite in their countries, but they should learn and follow Japanese style in Japan. Hopely every cultures have same sense.
Nobody didn't say anything, maybe...and they naturally thought it's no problem.
Some Japanese respect white people, because of white, and they look black and Asian ...anyway without white people discriminatively. You might think it's not right, but it's happened even police men. Japanese police men seldom ask to show a registrate card to white people, but almost all no-white people have experienced that and asked something very personal things. I saw some people having white skin know that's Japan. If some white foreigners use these Japanese thinking to something bad, what happens? Maybe it's already happened and they enjoy as they like... I don't mind even there're these foreigners, but I don't want to learn English with them.
I don't think new teachers are not these people, but I'd like to say anything which I feel as like as they need as a teacher.
