What you say is true in general. However, many Chinese parents know little about teaching and are racist.

I concede that you are right that you get the odd rare multi-lingual FT who can teach English as a foreign language nearly as well as we think we can.

I know that some people from Newcastle-Devon-Bolton, New York, can be a tad difficult to understand sometimes but they are native English speakers- and in the modern world where even the whites want the whites replacing, I defend their rights to teach their own language- foreigners should know we all have different accents-we have a right to, it's out bloody language- it was formed in Europe and not Africa.

I think it a little hard to refer to Chinese parents as racist- they just feel that they know what an FT should look like- and if the FT has got a turban on or a burka- or looks like they do themselves, they rightly feel short-changed.
