In response to A case of angry baboons on esl forums (Jake)

Like I have stated in a previous post, I am getting my tefl. But that is compounded by a bachelor's which I already have.

Even with a Bachelor in any major other than English does not make you a qualified "teacher" and perhaps a deecher at best. So, that does not impress me at all.

Could you explain to a Chinese student of English what the difference in the usage of interesting and interested for example is? It's a mistake4/error that is quite common among tht group of learners.

Or what about the difference of using the definite and indefinite articles correctly in English? Learners with first languages without articles seem to have a problem with that....

Not to mention to use English tenses correctly...The Chinese language has no tense system, hence this group of learners may need to be introduced to the grammatical notion of tense at a more elementary level of their learning process. How you gonna explain this to them, he?

Well, and then all the stuff about Anglo-Saxon culture that differs from native Chinese culture so much.....Any idea of how to deal with this in class?

Difference between the notions of "mistake" and "error" in ESL terninology .- do you know anything about that?

Unless you have well been well-trained, you most likely would fail to answer these questions that a decent teacher (unlike a deecher) should be able to respond to in reasonable manner.- I bet your TEFL cert course does not teach you all that....hahahaha

Foe the bit on angry baboons, I could not care less. It just shows that you are totally ignorant of the situation in ESL, and i pity the students that you might be deeching (not teaching) one day. Corporate lackeys will never be the kind of teacher that most students in ESL deserve because of all the money grub shit that is involved in that rotten business area.

Need some more banana leaves?....LOL
