Re: Net Teachers有甚麼優劣?
Dear WYmom:
Yes! You're right! Some of my NET friends complain about exactly what you said. When NET were trained in their own countries, many of them were not taught to teach structure (punctuation/grammar/synthetic structures, etc). Instead, they are taught to bring language into other subjects like geography/history/science. Therefore, when facing Asian students, they may not be able to apply what they've learned into their teaching!
Unfortunately, under a formal school setting, there's nothing much that NET's could do to amend the situation. However, if you're hiring a NET on your own, it is definitely a good idea to ask him/her read with your child. Ask them to read newspaper/magazine with your child, and you'll be amazed how lively the lesson can be.

My experience with NET teachers is different from eviepa. I feel that when NET teachers are restricted under local school cirriculum, they cannot teach upto their full potential.
NET teachers can teach much better in international schools using the more interactive approach and international cirriculum. They "teach" more interestingly, provide more international cultural aspects and knowledge to lead the students to think and ask, use different methods to arouse interest.
Besides, NET teachers (western ones) like to use much more encouraging methods to motivate the students, which is very effective.
Facing NET teachers, students will naturally speak in English or Mandarin to them, no need to force them or mark down the no. of times they have spoken in English. This just comes naturally.
One more thing, I find western teachers teach particularly well in other subjects - Science, Geography, History etc. It becomes so much more interesting than learning these in traditional local schools.
Of course there are some good teachers and some lazier teachers, which is the same case as local teachers. |
