Ang importante we can write, read, speak and understand the English language. Hindi naman ito naging barriers sa atin na makipagcommunicate sa mga native english speakers.

I am a teacher.Currently, I am teaching English online for Koreans. I just felt bad when I saw this video. they were comparing Filipino teachers to other native speakers. And the worst is, they were laughing about it. Do they think it’s funny? If you’re concern about our teacher and our country, make a stand. I hope they listen to themselves first before they say against others. Thanks! http://4camel.net/xe/?document_srl=682253 this is the website. hello everyone..

Ginaya nya ang iba't ibang accent sa english like AMERICAN ACCENT, BRITISH ACCENT and lastly FILIPINO accent. Nakakainis at nakakainsulto ang ginawa nya sa accent ng mga pinoy sa salitang english..bakit magaling ba ang mga teacher na koreans maturo ng english? Hahahahaha the Korean government hired native english speaker to teach english in public school but they don't know if the native english speaker is really a teacher. Guess what, isang public school dito sa amin ganun ang nangyari the native speaker is so lucky kasi nagkataon ang kanyang kasama ay Pinay na active at idealistic...ang nangyari malaki ang sahod ng native speaker among other english teacher na wala namang ginawa at kahit anong idea walang makukuha..tamad pa gumawa ng teaching materials....At itong Korean actress na 'to subukan kaya n'yang magsalita ng fluent ENGLISH in front of the public. 'Yong isang korean teacher nga nakilala ko sa States nag-aral ng English pero hindi nya alam ano ang EQUATOR at HUMID..hehehehehe Check the Korean Actress named LEE DA HAE.
