Proof that the Korean government hasn’t made a decision about hiring Filipino/Indian/Singaporean English teachers is the announcement that they will hire 10,000 practical English instructors over the next two years.
The government is to recruit about 10,000 Korean instructors for conversational English classes at public schools over the next two years amid difficulties in the hiring of native English teachers.
They are expected to replace native English speakers in the long term, depending on their effectiveness, the Ministry of Education, Science and Technology said, Monday.
This year, it will hire 2,000 “practical English instructors” for elementary schools and another 3,000 for secondary schools. The ministry will start accepting applications in June and announce the successful candidates in August. The teachers will work from the fall semester.
Another 5,000 are to be recruited next year.
Source: 5,000 Korean English Teachers to be Recruited this Year
Are there enough English speaking Koreans who could teach conversational classes? When I was taking my TESOL classes at Sookmyung University, I was in a group whose English proficiency is rather advanced. Practically everyone in my class spent more than two years living abroad in countries where English is the first language. Majority of them have that accent which tells you that they learned English from a native speaker.
As expected though, some members of the Korean Federation of Teachers’ Associations are against this plan.

Grabe ang tira ni ms, reije huh umaapaw, hehehe..yup i could write myself and you do write yourself too, TO EXPRESS PERFECT IDEAS,,,obvious naman ang pagiging perfect u po, pati tehnical term meron tayo sa ESL,,,,Baka po English terminology…Now mis reije I can now use that we HAVE TO THINK LOGICALLY BEFORE we have to elicit points, ideas, etc….
Isa lang ang nagustuhan ko words dito sa blog na to, word po ni ms. reije, LOGIC… which i am fond of learning…Thank you guys and i wanna greet you MERRY3X X MAS and a PEACEFUL new year.!!!!!!Ms. reije thanks. ms xoxo, ms. angel and to all who contributed for this intersting blog…..
“yup i could write myself ”
talaga? that’s not what i meant. hindi mo talaga naintindihan? wag mo na intindihin kse maski tinagalog na e hindi mo pa rin na gets.
“mS REIJE also quoted that she perfected her craft in teaching? who will agree? herself? NDI KAYA PAGMAMAYABANG YON? ”
yeah.. because i CAN. one thing about perfection is that it keeps on progressing. to be stagnant with what you HAVE is pathetic. (learned that one from another wiseman.) and don’t call me reije. the extra NE is needed here.
“i cant agree na my technical term tayo sa ESL”
thank GOD hindi ka natuloy tuloy as an ESL teacher. wag mo na rin i career. lalo na hindi ka prepared to its evolution and its loopholes, leave it to the newbies who wants to aspire for it. heaven knows we don’t need more mediocre teachers.
“But dont mind my words they are just words,”
then you shouldn’t have insulted anybody. and paraded to the whole site that you are mediocre too.
“Because i refrain changing my points of view,as i stand to what i said….”
good. keep it that way. i mentioned my reason above.
reijene´s last blog ..Signs that you’re a Snob
Alam mo ms reije, ang airy u rin, Yes continous learning is important as it is a way to progression. But why did u associate perfection to progression? Alam u you cannot accept even if you knew its already nonsense explanation, you made…
Remember that no one can say he is perfect his/her endeavor because when i seat in your class, I can evalaute that you’re only mediocre teacher…In logic no one can say to herself she is beautiful wherein in my own opinion she is not..But you are doing that….
Anyway thank you for reviewing my comments, and giving more time to edit, good job..but nothing gonna change in my point of view…You cannot accept that you’re the one who is pathetic…hehe… You know every individual has its weak points and I’ve found more on you….
I respect your opinion, because that’s your point of views, but respect mine coz that’s my views too. Kahit lait laitin u yan, manigas ka, heheh…
By the way I noticed at first your comprehension since then, and I found it very low in fact… Thats my opinion base on your write ups, and you are free to criticize mine also until you find yourself a winner…hehe…At Mapatagalog ka man o mapa English, wala parin, in writing you should emphasize substance and clarity…Ganyan ba pagkaperfect you sa craft u?
And i said dont mind my words, yes don’t mind it, kung sa palagay u eh mali why you mind it, because in my point of view tama sya so whats the big deal, you are free to criticize but be ready to be criticized,, parang masyado ka affected, hehe…Sau una nanggaling ang logic, tapus ndi u maapply sa mga cnasabi mo? That’s why I’m criticizing your comments and other comments because it’s not acceptable for me, and you are free to say something to other’s comments too, as simple as that, hala patay tayo dito ne..
And you cannot accept also na wala tayong technical terms sa ESL…You need to have research ne,.. We have technical terms in computer studies, in law, in engineering, and in other feild but we have English terms in ESL? Go over ESL,TOEFL, TOEIC, IELTS, if you can find technical terms.. In English we have latin words, greek words, slang, but no technical.,, Take note that or subject is ESL…..ESL…Where is Tehnical in ESL???
Thanks ne,,, mmwah
reijene and xoxo whatsoever… who do you think you are???walking dictionary? or a … bitch…you know what? you belong together masyado kayong nagmamagaling, but I beat your just good in writing not in speaking.Try to make a speech in front of thousand people tingnan natin kung di uurong dila nyo.angel is right stop calling stupid people a bisaya!!! because you hurt some feelings.Di lahat ng bisaya stupid you two more stupid than we are!!!!
pwede ba hindi naman tayo magkakakilala ng lubusan dito wag kayo magpredict ng hindi tutoo.
Para sa yo BISAYA….pakibasa muna ang mga comments sa taas!!!
“Di lahat ng bisaya stupid you two more stupid than we are!!!!”
Ga** ka pala e di inamin mo ring stupido kayo!!!
Hey, here’s my point wala namn akong nabasang stupid ang mga bisaya… Bisaya ako baliw ka!! at hindi ako sang-ayon sa yo! BOBO
ang tanga talaga sumagot.
ilang beses ko bng uulitin na hindi ETHNICITY ang ginago dito?
go see me BISAYA. i dare you. making a speech is useless, because it is memorized. how about actually having a conversation? You can’t accuse someone and hope that they’re not to respond. bring your words with you, match it with correct grammar to make sure that you and i won’t be speaking our mother tongue. call out my mistakes and i’ll call yours.
and we’ll bring in spectators. how’s that? (original idea from someone i know)
Oh, i almost forgot. I AM A BITCH. i’m actually beyond the word.. i’m a COLD BLOODED BITCH, cruel, and blunt. but i’m a teacher. only, i turn into that sociopath when people like you, or jeffry, or the rest of the nonsensical idiots go out and pretend to be great. (there’s too many of them!!)
and jeffry: wag ka na sumagot, nakakahiya kang sumagot eh. i used the expression “technical term” and you used it literally. wag mo ng dagdagan yung ignorance na pinapakita mo. i chose to ignore it and you kept on pressing on. ikaw kaya ang mag expand ng word usage? baka maintindihan mo? yung loopholes na tinutukoy ko hindi mo rin maiintindihan. wag ka na mag lecture, you don’t know what you’re talking about. stay at your desk and evaluate your staff. kung meron.
perfection if explained to you would be pointless. sarado utak mo remember?
i’d agree on that one: i’m an idiot. But guess what… i can still do this better than you, or the rest of you ganging up because someone frustrated used a FILIPINO WORD translated to english and is synonymous to an ethnic group.
so yes, i’m pathetic. because i can understand people better than you. because i’m an ignorant yet arrogant heathen who can still do this job better than you and some of the degree holders here.
and if comprehension skills are being picked on here: then i guess it’s weird that i am reading PERVERSION leaking on every word typed. only, i kept on ignoring it as it’s grossing me out. STOP CALLING ME REIJE. the extra NE is needed.
you’re not a friend, don’t “muah” me.
reijene´s last blog ..and i’m done hibernating.
Oh puso mo ne!!!!Ang saya pala dito…U said You can do better than me or someone else!!!! Watch your words, you can tell it to yourself not to me or to someone else… Bakit u dito pinangangalandakan yan? Do you think I will agree? You can praise your self either or you can say to your self you are perfect but do it alone not here….Because I can say you are the one who is pretending,,,…
Your words, and your expressions now turned zero (000000)…
And I will again stand to my point that you cannot use the word technical term in ESL…..OR ELSE YOU LOST YOUR WAY HOME NE….aSK THE TRUE ESL INSTRUCTOR / PROFESSOR and if they will agree that i can use that word in ESL, THEN you will get a low blood pressure…hehe…. ImaginE,,, “GOOD COMMAND OF ENGLISH” is a technical term in ESL????? How can you say that?Oh my Goodness!!!
At yong perfection na cnasabi u? Wala kana ba maidagdag?Parang nawala u dun,,,Common, depend more, elicit more,,,more explaination ika nga more mistakes…At sa paikot ikot ko sau, nawawala kana sa focus,,,,Paanu yan pag nasa witness stand ka? Bka pag tinanung kita ” Anu kinain u sa Shakeys? baka sabihin u SAKIN eh “JUICE”…
tHANKS NENE, …
By the way I’ve seen one point in your comment to bisaya, I’m not depending someone else, take note that, I’m only after to someone’s point of view…
You said MAKING SPEECH IS USELESS!!!!!yOU CAN SAY THAT to yourself,,, but to me biG NO… Public speaking is more difficult compare to speaking in the four corners of the wall… Imagine you said it;s only memorize, and babaw you lang pala…Kala ko pa naman ang galing galing mu….Take note that in public speaking, you need to consider three major elements of communication, the ETHOS OR CHARACTER, the PATHOS or compassion and the LOGOS or the factual content of your speech.
Tapus sabihin u lang, memorize lang yan okey na,,, patay tayo dito.. Lumalabas na rin ang weakneses u..Even those public officials are hiring experts to draft a speech, train the speaker, correct improper posture, gesture, expression, voice modulation, how to get the attention of audiences, how to stress important points, HOW to touch emotion, etc… tapus sabihin u USELESS!!!!!??????????????????HALA SAN NA PINAGMAMALAKI MONG CRAFT. Even to students of ESL it is applicable.. Anu pala ginagawa u sa klase mo? Are you not considering those points when talking…Although me pagkakaiba ng kunti ang public speaKing at class discussion, ang 3 basic elements na yan ay ginagamit for effective communication…
Even reading loud is applied to ESL teaching and those elements should be observed applying 125-160 words per minute….
Ang again it is not acceptable for me that you will say that public speaking is USELESS….Anyway it is acceptable to yourself, don’t worry, hehe. Sabi ko nga You are free to ctitisize but be ready to be critized…Tirahin u ng tirahin points ko it’s okey, pERO UNTI UNTING LUMALABAS KAHINAAN U,,, KALA KO PA NAMAN EH YOU CAN DO BETTER THAN ME AND TO SOMEONE ELSE,, YES SAY IT TO YOURSELF NOT TO ME, kasi nawawala kana,,,,,
Mayabang ka rin naman ah!!! matagal ko nang nababasa ang mga comments nyo! nakakasawa na! nagmamagaling ka! anu ka, POLITIKO para magPUBLIC SPEAKING! Baka naman construction worker ka jan sa SAUDI!!! Pa-public PUBLIC SPEAKING KA PANG NALALAMAN! AT eto pa, ekumpara ba naman ang public speaking sa speaking in 4 corners of the wall! wala ka talagang ka-sense sense uy!!!
TAMA KA NA! dinudungisan mo ang lahat ng OPERATIONS MANAGER na katulad mo dati!!! take not!operations manager daw!
May nalalaman ka pang pa-witness stand! Anu to criminal investigation department??!!! at nagfi-feeling imbestigaodr KAH???!!! Uy gising kayo!!
Itigil na to!
relax, Jillian. Let me.
Jeffry, wala ka ba talaga naintindihan sa sinabi ko? i brought more eyes on this particular display of nonsense, all objective spectators, and all of them didn’t know my alter-ego.
They said the same thing: you’re not making sense, you sounded a bit pervy (asking me for a coffee when you don’t even know if i were human or a camel), and had strayed over the topic, and still not get what i kept on saying.
I said i’m better than you, why? because you’re showing me that i am. care to prove me wrong? start by doing a decent form of comment.
i pointed out that making a speech between HIM AND ME would be useless. memorized (or practiced) na kse. You mentioned it yourself. It had to be edited (in all aspects) to make maximum impact. Paiiyakin mo pa yung BISAYA e baka pag natanong ng something unrelated he might wish this one: SWALLOW ME WHOLE.
My friends and i had experienced that… great speaker, then after asking an impromptu question, naloko na. Akala ko ba Operations manager ka? you should know this.
technical term is a figure of expression MEANING picking on details.. kawawa ka naman. it’s NOT A PART OF SPEECH. is it too difficult for you to think outside the box?
“At yong perfection na cnasabi u? Wala kana ba maidagdag?”
bakit? you’re going to use it?
don’t lecture me with speech. I do it everyday in another form.
” Anu pala ginagawa u sa klase mo? Are you not considering those points when talking…Although me pagkakaiba ng kunti ang public speaKing at class discussion, ang 3 basic elements na yan ay ginagamit for effective communication…”
baka sex. ewan ko lng. ang tanga ng tanong mo.
and since we’re back to stupid questions, let’s bring back that particular phrase:
“good command of English? Only good?”
e ikaw? meron ka nyan? saka ano palang ine expect mo? great command of english? o baka naman best command of english (naloko na)…
word of advice: articulate yourself better. baka nga may point ka hindi mo lang alam kung paano sabihin.
reijene´s last blog ..and i’m done hibernating.
Walng naintindihan sa cnabi mo? Ms. reije hi,,, hehe..Don’t make illogical question…So people would understand…Kaya pala naliligaw kana ng landas, sa kakahanap mo ng daan para mkalusot ka lang sa mga usaping eto. hehe.
Yup it’s useless sabi mo nga, kasi memorize lang, in other words, ganun nalng tingin u sa public speaking, yabang…Ah memorize lang yan tapus….Wow a great speaker!!!!Dito pa nga lang eh sabit na…
And don’t voice out here your experiences coz it’s illogical in nature…You can tell yourself you perfected your craft. you can praise your self, you can say to yourself you’re a great speaker, you can even buy a medal, put on yourself and recognize yourself, and all those terrific characteristics in you, ,,, but not in this blog, because stupid people will believe you at mag mukha ka lang tanga nyan … hhehe
Balik tayo sa technical term? San ka naman nag research, na hanggang ngayon, eh nawawala ka parin? Tehnical term is a figure of expression and not a part of speech…”You quoted”. “GOOD COMMAND OF ENGLISH IS A TECHNICAL TERM”…Go ask true and brilliant esl professor, if they will agree that GOOD COMMAND OF ENGLISH is a technical term, then I will not recommend you to consult your physician now…hehhe…FOCUS ON YOUR IDEA…don’t make rubbish explanation coz those readers might be confused…And they might not perfect their craft like you… hehe
And You did a very nice reply to my question…hehe, can we? Kahit me edad u na mam ok lang sa akin, hehe…Anyway, if you think logically, it’s just a breeze to respond to any ideas RIGHT OR WRONG, STRAIGHT OR CURVE, LOGICAL OR NOT…
Also you gave me a piece of advice,,, hehe how much was that? You know, I would suggest ne that let yourself to be your first client in your new found career…hehe…Before you advice, mend yourself first,,,It is illogical to give advice to someone who u don’t know, not your close family, not your student…Pag asawa kita it’s my pleasure, hehe. pero hindi eh…
To jilian,,,If you have nothing to say, nothing to elicit, nothing to do, then stop making drama,,,Do your household chores, put something to yourself and be ready to share…
Thanks ne…Til next time
waaaah! paulit ulit na lang nakakasawa na. please STOP it, STOP it.
Sige na nga lahat kayo magaling. Lahat kayo tama. AWAT NA!!!
We just all need to chill….Halo-halo anyone???
OMG.. wala ka ngang naintindihan.
oh, before i forget, it took me this long to respond because i can’t put my life to hold because of your idiocity.
“And don’t voice out here your experiences coz it’s illogical in nature…”
then why did you in the first place (ano daw? operations manager daw?)? we went from a discussion of the term bisaya to whatnots, and now you’re insinuating that i don’t get anything, when it’s YOU who can’t understand ANYTHING!!
Lemme say that again…
after a rather lengthy response from me, you picked a particular expression.said “good command of english? only good?”
and i said.. “so now we’re on TECHNICAL TERMS” (MEANING namili ka ng particular phrase).
wala ka bang naalalang ibang parts of speech?
wag ka na. you’re messing yourself up. stop explaining, simply because you’re making excuses for something you misunderstood. I’m a good teacher, because i have patience.. even for you. you’re perverted, i guess kulang sa sex, and you keep on shortening MY NAME yet it’s pretty simple. call me reijene.
and since you don’t want a rather intellectual word of advice, i’d go for something with your level: go get laid.

Hey mis reije, buhay ka pa pala, eto buhay pa din me, hehe…
I want to get laid with you girl, how old u naba? baka pwd kapa, hehe…. And How many times you praise yourself in this blog, youre the best speaker, you perfected your craft, you are good teacher at kung anu pa, .. In my part i just mentioned my position and not describing myself,,, Kasi para kang tanga ma pinupuri mo sarili mo, hehe. at cnu maniniwala sau? of course sarili mo rin, so just like youre thrwing party to yourself drinking alone, and you yourself is your visitor, parang tanga lang pag ganun, … Yon ang attitude mo dito sa blog na to…
Wag u na po palusot ha, kasi wala ka nang lusot, SAU NANGGALING ANG SALITANG good command of english is a technical term….. Is that idiocity or stupidity? what do u think? hehe… Kahit kanino ka pa magtanung na kung ang GOOG COMMAND OF ENGLISH is a technical term, pag sagut nila eh yes then bigyan ko kayo ng parangal, hehe… Sumabit ka dyan ne, hehe… At wag mo ako sabihan ng part of speech kasi sa elementarya palang tinuturo na yan… baka ngayon u lang natutunan yan, …
Bakit u pala ako pinapahinto sa pag explain? bakit wala kana ba maidagdag sa technical term mo? wag u paikutin po ang idea ha kasi ndi ako gaya mo na kapag pinaikot eh nalito na at sumabit na, heheheh…..
See you ne, mmwah
My big question in this blog!!!!!
CAN WE SAY THAT ” GOOD COMMAND OF ENGLISH” IS A TEHNICAL TERM?
POST YOUR ANSWER AND LETS DISCUSS BECAUSE THIS IDEA IS TOTALLY WRONG IN MY PART…..
PINAGPIPILITAN NI MS REIJE NA TAMA ANG KANYANG CNABI KAHIT ALAM NYANG SABIT NA… HEHEHE
Pare, gawa ka ng sarili mong blog para maganda. Ahehehe!
POST YOUR ANSWER AND LETS DISCUSS BECAUSE THIS IDEA IS TOTALLY WRONG IN MY PART…..
PINAGPIPILITAN NI MS REIJE NA TAMA ANG KANYANG CNABI KAHIT ALAM NYANG SABIT NA… HEHEHE
….everybody deserves to post his/her opinion here, pare. Maaaring mali syo o kaya naman tama sa kanya or vice versa. ang babae minamahal pare. itigil mo na yan…
Ms. Reijene,
Nakakahiya n para sayo tong pinagsasabi ng isa. Ikaw ang mas nakakaintindi, so ikaw na ang huminto.
More power sa blog mo.
Hello pre salamat. But i already said that words in my previous comments… Sabi ko nga ang babae eh minamahal….Dut in terms of ideas, I have to stand for it til the end of time…hehe
Anyway we discussed views only and not to hurt someone…
Thank you and I understand my words as well as my points….She can reply anytime she wants…
Yes everyone can post blogs, but there were ideas wherein we emphasized our views and you can’t just say maaring mali sakin o sa iba o sa kanya… Everyone is free to critisize even all bloggers here could critisize me, share views and comments. However, if you can’t stand to your points, then mag isip isip kana…and better stop if you want…
If you critisized someone, make sure that you’re ready to be critisized too…
If you can stand to your points, then go, if you can’t, then stop.
Thank you for this interesting blog…..
Pare, bastos ka na wala ka pang modo. Tama bang magbiro ka ng you want “to get laid” with someone here? Gaano ka ba kapangit at kabaduy at tila walang nag kakagusto sa iyo?
Halatang halata ang kalidad ng edukasyon mo. Idiocity? di ba dapat idiocy? english kanto pala gamit mo. “Critisize”? Langya mas marunong pa mag spell sa iyo yung aso namin, wag mo sabihing typo error at 3 beses mo nabanggit yan sa comment mo. In short, tanga ka talaga na nag papanggap na may alam. Yung tipo mo yung mga taong sabik sa papuri subalit walang natatanggap. Nakakaawa ka. Nakakapurol ng utak na basahin iyung english comments mo, ni hindi mo alam kung paano gumamit ng tenses. Magtagalog ka na lang, or bisaya kung gusto mo.
scuse me, but i’m not to stop my life just because you don’t understand anything. unlike you, i have a blog to manage, a research on hold, holidays, lesson planning on top of level tests, and two kids. ikaw? any life you need to go back to?
WHERE ON EARTH HAVE YOU GOTTEN THE IDEA THAT I USED “TECHNICAL TERM” AS PART OF GRAMMAR??
i used it As a FIGURE OF EXPRESSION. ever heard of that? MEANING namili ka ng PARTICULAR word in a phrase, or A PARTICULAR PHRASE to discuss in an entire topic. mahirap ba intindihin?
i’m guessing you didn’t like what you saw on my blog. GOOD. wala ka ring maiintindihan dun. (like, when did i say i’m the best speaker?) LOL. amazing how you can assume things you didn’t even get in the first place.
reijene´s last blog ..Passing time because…
“Kasi para kang tanga ma pinupuri mo sarili mo,”
LOL. stick to the topic.
reijene´s last blog ..Passing time because…
Uy dumadami ah…Thank you pre, pwd ka palang editor, professor, pastor, paki correct spelling ha..
Before ka makisawsaw, tingnan mo muna sarili u sa salamin ha, if you have the right to act like my professor,,, If you have nothing to talk with, hanap ka nalng ng gaya ni ms reije…in the first place you just come out in this blog and you don’t know the real score…
Look at the comments of ms. reije who perfected her craft last sept. 26 and she mentioned idiocity word and we are not in the esssay writing competition checking all the spelling. And i also reiterated in my comments the same word but we established same meaning…
In fact i can make just like sending text message…As soon as with logical AND precise ideas at hindi lumiko dun sa TECHNICAL TERM hehe…I didn’t even say that I’m perfect in grammar, because stupid people who can say he/she can perfect Grammar test considering all aspects of grammar…
At pare kung masyado kang sensitive, this blog doesn’t need you. On 26 September, a good adviser reijene advised me to go and get laid so I said I wanna get laid with you!!!!Ibalik ko sayo pre cnabi mo ha, wag mo kawawain sarili mo kung wala kang mailalabas…mahirap yan….
If you cant carry that kind of expression, we don’t need you here…And next time before you say that think hundred times first if you are ready to express yourself in public…
And to miss reije!!!,,, I miss you,,, First, Dont tell me your personal activities in life, If I’m your husband, then you can, hehe…I wont tell you mine, its illogical anyway….Sana naintindihan mo cnasabi mo,,,If you’re busy, then I am…No need to narrate…
And you said, when did you say that you are a great speaker? Aba marunong kang magreview sa mga cnusulat mo, don’t give me job, hehe… Kasi how many times you described yourself not only on characteristic but many best selling characteristics you mentioned recognizing yourself,,You can say teacher ka ng ESL, manager ka, Pastor ka, but stupid who will describe himself/herself using best selling adjectives in this blog kasi mukhang kinawawa mo naman sarili mo…blog po eto….
Again balik tayo” GOOD COMMAND OF ENGLISH” and you called it technical term, Wag mu linlangin naman ang readers,, I’m in ha miss reije indi ako out sa topic, hehe
You cannot say, that a good command of English is a technical term,,,And i will insist that you cannot say that,,,How come? At wag mo sabihin na indi ko naintindihan,,,
What is the technicality of the expression, good command of English? U used before as a sentence, go and pick what you said before,,,Kahit anu pa yan , sentence, figure of expression, idiom, phrase, or whatever BUT THE POINT IS YOU CANNOT SAY THAT IT IS A TECHNICAL TERM, HEHE…Wag ka mag assume ha,,,,,,,mahirap yan…
you still didn’t get it did you?
you picked a particular phrase on an entire paragraph, and picked a particular word to go along with it. THAT’S WHAT TECHNICAL TERM over there MEANT! a figure of expressioN (somehwat like an idiom, remember that?) meaning a PARTICULAR PHRASE/WORD/WHATNOT in an ENTIRE PARAGRAPH.
Naintindihan na ba? mahirap pa rin?
O sya: ibalik natin:
“good command of english?” (figure of expression)
“only good?” (there’s the technical term i was talking about!!! GOOD) an oxymoronic point of view usually has that.
naintindihan na? o baka naman slow ka lng talaga?
can’t blame you. not everyone can understand easily. hence the point of this argument.
“If you cant carry that kind of expression, we don’t need you here…And next time before you say that think hundred times first if you are ready to express yourself in public…”
then what are you doing HERE? somehow you have learned to use the enter button. GREAT. may natutunan ka rin pala.
“go get laid.”
or you wouldn’t ask me over and over again. wala bng prostitute jan na pwede mong pag tyagaan? because asking me out when you’re not even sure if i’m a camel or a spambot… that’s just perverted.
I perfected my craft. you didn’t like that? you don’t have to. It’s not the end of the world. bring it up again? you’re just jealous. because you know you can’t.
reijene´s last blog ..Passing time because…
hay buhay….kakaloka iich..hihihi
“only good?” (there’s the technical term i was talking about!!! GOOD) an oxymoronic point of view usually has that.
-hmmm…. “an oxymoronic POV??” what is an oxymoron??
*jaws hanging*
reijene´s last blog ..oooh scary!!! LOL
pinabilib nyo naman ako. litle knowledge is dangerous ika nga.
It is really pathetic to some point that a lot of Filipinos doesn’t realize that it would be better for teacher to teach here in the Phils Koreans instead of our teachers going there. Why?
Philippines will generate more income if Koreans are going to deluge our country with their presence because there are lots of people or establishments will benefit like:
1. Shopping Malls where there are thousands of minimum earners sales personnel working.
2. Our country will earn tax arrivals and excess luggage’s fee from them.
3. Post office charges and custom for their letters and packages coming from their family in Korea if their studying here.
4. Restaurants and fast foods chains will have Korean costumers too. They love eating…
5. Our teachers can walk out or resign immediately if the Korean manager shouted at them while if they are in Korea they can’t go anywhere, anytime but just to swallow and suppress their ego.
6. And our Filipino family will be intact, living together here and not one of the members going out of the country and leave their young without personal guidance just to teach Koreans in their country.
7. Resorts, golf courses, hotels, home stay etc. will earn from the students coming here in the Phils.
So, why don’t you let them come here? Dream big… if you want to experience snow, aim to visit there as tourist or put up your own English Academy and not just to become as an overseas contract worker. Accepting small salary because you are not a native speakers.
There is no place like home!
MAESTRA VIAJES- http://www.untvweb.com´s last blog ..What a Lovely English !!!
Filipino’s will never be seen as appropriate English instructors in schools for a few simple reasons unless changes are made to correct their English.
Firstly, they utilise U.S. based Phonetic methodology.
Secondly, because they can only speak using this form of English, they are unable to teach others how to pronounce words that defy the rules: eg Merry, Mary, Marry.
They would need to speak using a non-rhotic accent, meaning /r/ does not occur unless followed immediately by a vowel. Pairs such as father/farther, pawn/porn, caught/court and formally/formerly are homophones.
They would need to show that their accent has not undergone the weak vowel merger, meaning that pairs such as Lenin/Lennon are distinct. Also that it has not undergone the Mary-marry-merry, nearer-mirror, or hurry-furry mergers: all these words are distinct from each other.
There is no h-dropping in words like head or horse or herb.
I could go on, but I think the point has been made.
