"Certainly not me. Entertain them, and be happy while making them happy, get your priorities right."

I know where you're coming from; however, I try to do some good teaching, otherwise I feel I'm pandering to, money-grabbing FT agencies (mainly your employer if you work in state schools) evil education centres, bloodsucking leaders in many universities etceteras- all of which want you to entertain rather than teach. There seems to be lots of brownie points for teaching bad and amusing English like "kick ass/arse" brown nose, when we should be teaching standard English-try ingratiate. I have no intentions of ingratiating myself by giving over completely to leaders and bosses where the emphasis is on making money.

When i arrive in my next university the first classes will all be laying down my rules-no mobiles or electronic dictionaries-no talking(I throw students out if they persist) no swanning in and out of the classroom-my name is MR-(you don't call your Chinese teacher by her first name) I will get some grief but they won't sack me. I don't care, I only teach 14-16 classes a week, well, I wouldn't expect any longer hours for 5000 RMB.

If I get (as I will) any attempts to lecture me from little Chinese teachers, I cut them short and tell them to mind their own businesses-I even ban them from the classroom sometimes.
