Are Our Kids Tough Enough?Chinese School In 2015, a BBC documentary went viral on the Internet in China.5 Chinese teachers went to the Bohunt School in Hampshire, England and brought the students Chinese style of teaching. They were going to teach 50 chosen students for 4 weeks and there would be a final test in the end. Moreover, the scores of these 50 students would be compared to their counterparts, those who were being taught in a British way. The headmaster of Bohunt School was curious to find out the results. In a typical Chinese school, students are required to wear uniforms at school, and so did the 50 British students. Every morning before attending class, they did morning exercise .It's surprising that the kids found it interesting and relaxing. However, the nightmare came soon. Chinese teachers were very strict because they believed that discipline is important."Without discipline, you don't learn well", as one of the teachers said. The conventional Chinese style of teaching is the teacher standing in front of the class and talking at the students. Most of the British students thought it was boring and difficult to understand, thus they loss their focus easily.Nevertheless, there were some kids held that it was an effective way of teaching in that they understood the knowledge they didn't understand before. Classroom management was the most challenging part of teaching for the teachers. The students always talked with each other in class and did not listen to the teacher.A naughty boy even kept making noises during a quiz. Obviously some of them didn't respect the teachers at all. Even if the teachers were patient, sometimes they got angry and yelled at the kids.The relationship between the teachers and the students became tense increasingly. Seeing this, the headmaster was confident that Bohunt school students（being taught in a British style） would triumph at the final exam. 4 weeks later, however, the outcome showed that the Chinese school students(being taught in a Chinese style) achieved higher average marks for Math, Mandarin and Science than their counterpart. What a dramatic result! I'm not talking which style of teaching is better and I have to say that most Chinese teachers are friendly, they are only strict in class. The documentaries are availble on Youtube and there are 3 episodes of them.The title is "Are Our Kids Tough Enough?Chinese School".Check it out if interested.

Learning English in China I'm a senior university student who have been learning English for 14 years.What I'm talking about are my own perspectives on learning English in China according to my experiences. Like most Chinese students, I started to learn English in the third grade. However, the knowledge I learned from primary school was too limited. So basically it was in middle school when I really started to learn English. In my middle school, there were no foreign English teachers. But I think my teacher was pretty good. She was enthusiastic and always encouraged students to speak English. In my opinion, many English teachers only focus on vocabulary or grammar and neglect speaking and listening skills.That's why so many Chinese students are not good at speaking or listening. In the middle school, it was easy to pass the English exam, thus I usually got good grades. When I was in high school, what made me confused was that the teachers were teaching British English while it was American English that I learned before. To students, however, it was not a big deal because the difference was subtle. Since we were preparing the College Entrance Examination, we spent lots of time doing exercises and seldom spoke English. Univerity English classes were more relaxing. My teacher was a young lady who had studied in Amercia before. She required every student to speak English in class and make a presentation each semester. Apart from that, she suggested us watching English movies and TV series and listening to English music. I have to admit that my English level improved by doing that.However, there were no more English classes after the sophomore year. Consequently, I haven't been speaking English for almost 2 years. So I need to improve my speaking and listening skills of English and this is why I'm here.
