In response to Re Language Training Centers' Trashing (englishgibson)

So my response if off, well tough - deal with it! To be honest with you Mr Gibson I don't know what you are ranting about. Your style of prose is hard work and difficult to follow. It all seems vague. If you are not writing a generalisation, you are now saying that a single training center has more potential "than the Chinese public sector" ?

I am not the slightest bit interested in the 'potential' of language centers, training centers and all the other things you say in such a way that it is all so obvious and cannot be challenged. You are entrenched in your views. Are you unemployed?

You say things about universities but you have had absolutely no direct experience of working in one of them at all, have you?

Your views/
Training centers have more potential than the public sector? WRONG because they will take anybody as a "teacher." They have to,some are struggling to fill vacancies because staff leave before finishing a contract.
The universities do not provide staff opportunities - WRONG! Many do this if teachers want to get involved. However if training centers are taking anybody, and many are 'rookies' without any teaching experience they probably have to do some training. Just like you when you went to English First maybe.

That 'local professionals', if you mean Chinese , do the all the testing - WRONG! FTs can also be involved.

"On(?)the end, it's clear what should be better, " NO IT IS NOT CLEAR AT ALL!

"It's not because it has been destroyed by the local system that probably wanted it destroyed." Which local system, what do you mean? Is there one system or many? Who wanted it destroyed and why - the state schoolteachers, the Mafia, the Pope? ARE YOU A CONSPIRACY THEORIST?

"Just imagine if training centers straightened out their act and then overtook the public schools in popularity on mainland." WHY WOULD WE WANT TO IMAGINE THIS?

This is just stupid and shows the level of your understanding! The bulk of school age children in China will never have the money for a private education, and the number of students involved is too large.
