It checks out
Talking to them doesn’t help. I’m a German teacher for new immigrants and I explained how poorly people adjust to a new country when all they wanted was something different, and they condescended to me about not letting my personal experience (with scores of students) color my opinion 🤦
I just hope anyone who’s interested based on what they’re saying adequately prepares themselves. I’m personally a proponent of freer global migration and language teaching, but it’s laughable to think that it’s general advice for people who don’t like their current situation.
What about the gradually spreading military juntas in ECOWAS countries?
This is a perfect shower thought, thank you
Teaching abroad without proper preparation and understanding of what you’re signing up for is a recipe for culture shock and depression.
Just like going swimming without proper preparation ( swimming lessons and adequate aerobic fitness) is a recipe for drowning.
Lots of people have the patience for kindergartners, but that’s only because there are eight billion people. Telling everyone who’s depressed to go to a new place where they know no one and have to deal with kindergartners and employers who may or may not fulfill the accommodation or pay promises they made while not having a good working knowledge of the local culture or language is irresponsible.
Several of those programs are scammy. I know people who’ve been screwed by their company in South Korea, Ethiopia, and the Philippines. I’m glad it worked for you, and it’s a worthwhile thing to try if it calls to you, but it’s a recipe for culture shock and depression if someone doesn’t fully understand and want that experience.
I’m an American living in Germany, and I teach German classes to new immigrants, so I see a lot of people who wanted something different, but didn’t specifically want Germany. It’s much more difficult for them to adjust to a new place than for people who specifically seek Germany out.
I also personally think teaching children is too important to leave to people who are untrained, even if they’re subject matter experts, but I may be biased as it’s my career. I definitely wouldn’t teach kindergarten, because I (like most people) don’t have the patience.
You see how a lack of scientific reporting on the subject makes it less likely that you find more examples, right?
Eh, they were trying to be helpful. They shouldn’t feel embarrassed about it, it’s a good thing to do.
Also I would not have made the urine-IP address connection without that comment, I just thought they were rambling into nonsense.
A lot of Jews see the Torah as allegorical, just like a lot of Catholics. I went to Catholic school and not a single person tried to tell me that a day really meant a day in the creation myth. Everyone just sort of had an aside that time was funky and people weren’t the best at clear note taking back then, so it’s more a loose allegory than definite fact (given that the Vatican is cool with evolution, it’s not so surprising).
That said, I think this is the wrong comment section
“Snuck in” is a very strange word to use for asylum seekers
And NAACP is still around, even with a name that was offensive 40 years ago, because a) it’s clearly not intended to offend; and b) the name recognition is incredibly helpful: I hear NAACP, I think W.E.B. DuBois and Thurgood Marshall.
This is probably the only Hollywood version with actors less attractive than the actual subjects were.
💦👏🧴👏💦 damn. That’s really the closest you can get
Yes, though the other side is allowed to challenge your reasons if there’s a theme in your eliminations and each side can only do it so many times. You also can’t ask too much personal information, though that varies based on the case.
You cannot be kicked off for any reason. Class and race are invalid grounds for removal, but you can be removed for no reason.
Or disagreeable men are “strong and purposeful” but disagreeable women are “bitchy.”
A DP with a two stroke? Damn
