Hi there all

There is an illness on the web: it is called Facebook. Some ESL teachers use the tool extremely irresponsible as well as personal blog sites. Recently someone used the logo of Shane English School in Dongying and opened a group for drinking and marryment ... intentionally spelled wrongly: please note guys and girls out there - that is in violation of trade laws anywhere. Teacher's must be careful what they do on Facebook even if and when it is blocked in China - there is still legally binding international laws. Next time when teachers get merry or drunk and find themselves infront of a computer - don't!!! sleep on it. You are guests in countries you travel to, as ESL OR ELF teachers. Treat your hosts' honor with respect be it on blogs or Facebook. People talk and people from other countries get to see those offensive things.
Take care and do not attempt to bite the hands that feed you.
