In response to Re: NATIVE SPEAKERS WANTED(lan) (Kelvin( Hunan))

"you have also made so many mistakes in your response to Goto" .
Please point these mistakes out to me!

Look guys, I have already said that there are *lots* of Native English teachers who are not good teachers. I agree with you. However, to say they are all bad is simply untrue.
I have also said that I agree with you when you say there are lots of very good African teachers. (There are bad ones too.)
People are just people. I don't care what colour someones skin is. If they are a good teacher then they are a good teacher.

*HOWEVER* you are preaching to the converted. The people you really need to take this up with are the CHINESE bosses and the CHINESE customers.
You've convinced me, really, and I didn't need convincing anyway!
