I have two little stories to seek your advice na ka.
A boarding school in the lower north under our network has just called for all male teachers to wear ties every day. Our American grantee isn’t comfortable with it because the weather is hot and even without a tie, he finds the hot weather continues to be his challenge. He noticed that not all male teachers follow the direction’s order. He raised the matter with a teacher who said it was beyond her control. What do you think should be the best way out for him ka?
As you might be aware, we send our American grantees to teach conversational English (ETAs) in 10 provinces. Our ETAs got a one-month training in Bangkok as most didn’t have any background in teaching languages. They are assigned to have around 15 hours of classes per week (18 is maximum) ka. Some schools have asked our ETAs to teach their teachers for at least 4-5 hours every week and in several cases, teach their directors about an hour each day. They need time to prepare all the lessons for their regular classes. English proficiency of teachers and directors is quite low (if not very low for some!) and requires lots of preparation on the ETAs’ part. What would be your advice ka?
If there’s any other comment you have out of the two cases, do let me know too ka.
Warm regards,
