I think he is making a point beyond pointing out the grammar errors.

Don't worry about any 6-year-old children you might have enrolled in our school, 600k from BKK, where there are 53 per class, no AC, no resources, and they can't read nor write. I do numbers, colours, animals, fruits, and what's your name. But you could write the admin a letter outlining your concerns about the backpacker they have employed.

I'm sorry, but does idiocy just spew from your mouth and fingers when you wish to communicate? This is as stupid as your OP.

As you, poorly, pointed out we native speakers don't have to know the intricacies of grammar in order to speak the language correctly. We also don't need to know those same intricacies, nor how to impart them to a second or third party in order to teach language to a child.

Let's take a deep breath and think...eh? If you ask a three-year old child, "Have you eaten lunch, yet?" The child is apt to reply, "No, I haven't." The child doesn't know that it has responded in the the first person negative in the Present Perfect. You may not know that you've asked a question in the same verb tense...your lack of this knowledge does not preclude the child from learning from you.

What are you smoking?

The only thing laughable is your attempt on this thread to talk like you know anything about imparting language to learners and the process attached to it.

Oh...BTW...2 years of high school Spanish with a non-native...intermediate.
I also speak Western African Criolu fluently, Brasilian Portuguese fluently enough to never need a dictionary or translator, a smattering of Malay, Thai and Korean.

I understand what it takes to learn a language...and in doing so I understand what it takes to teach effectively.

You, on the other hand, seem to sit in an office rather than in front of 30 or 40 students to determine what is needed by us teachers.

I laugh at you...hear me? I laugh at you.

Hear me laughing?

What an idiot.

^ Very well said. Can't be bothered myself.

So then I could search all your 1080 posts and not find an error, eh noob? Or does a person who claims to be a teachers not make errors? You anal, petty, white trash, ignorant piece of shit. Oh no! I think he's going to red me again! Fcukin girl!

Go on, make me look stupid. Give it the ol' chav Clockwork Orange go.

It is a pity you have to use in print the bad words ,Mister Fixit of my language.

Roady

Teaching, huh? Lemme say just a few words which you are NOT GONNA FIND in your average ESL classroom:
1. REPUBLICANS SUCK They will fool you with religion and other ENORMOUS LIES to confuse your simple brain while they rob you of your culture and any resources which happen to be laying around. They will tell you it's 'God's will' and GLOBALIZATION IS GOOD. They will forget to mention that it's only good for the rich and will leave you struggling to make ends meet while paying taxes and interest to a cabal of JEWISH BANKERS.
2. BEWARE AMERICANS They came here from a decadent, porn-ridden society BUILT ON GUILT AND BULLSHIT!
3. TREASURE YOUR OWN Your culture is at least as good as any other on this planet. Don't let them steal it from you and leave you watching re-runs of GILLIGAN'S ISLAND or SECOND RATE NEWS brought to you live from the ZIONIST CONTROLLED PRESS which amounts to professional brainwashing.
4. LOOK AT HISTORY And find that the only people who really profit from 'advancing democracy' are the scumbags who OWN DEMOCRACY as it relates to you. If three million dead civilians in Vietnam don't wanna make you give your head a shake, then you really are 'inferior.'
5. PRAY FOR CANADA We are right next door to the CHOSEN FEW and if we were to assert our rights to an independent country they would bomb our socks off before breakfast and march in in the name of 'Freedom and Democracy.'
6. DON'T BLAME THE AMERICAN PEOPLE They are as much the victim as anybody else of their corrupt government and Israeli owned media. Most Americans you meet are just as nice and decent as anybody else in this veil of tears we call 'civilization.'

That's it, I guess. Of course they will never publish this on this site but I feel better for venting anyway.

^^ What an angry little Roady.

Camel Toe

I'll get right on that!

Accidental Ajarn

Roady is gayfrenchiefly's new nic?

MS-Such anger. What exactly are you angry about and why?

Controversial

One that can stay in Thailand long term, with no qualifications, add nothing to the Thai education system and drink every day..

MisterStretch

Anger, what anger?

Accidental Ajarn

"I laugh at you...hear me? I laugh at you."

Oh, this is not anger?

Easy solution. Don't like Bruce's course, don't take it. So, all your problems are now solved.

MisterStretch

Not anger, ridicule. Several of his contentions fly in the face of professional approaches to language instruction, in my experience and opinion.

I know nothing of Bruce's courses. I've never taken one of his courses so I can't comment on them.

I have had the misfortune to work with and interview some of his graduates, though.

Accidental Ajarn

"Several of his contentions fly in the face of professional approaches to language instruction, in my experience and opinion."

So you are Mr. know it all English Teacher?

"I have had the misfortune to work with and interview some of his graduates, though."

Ah, are you trying to say because some people spent 4 weeks of their 30 or 40 years in Bruce's school they are now useless?

Fuck dude, get a life. You are taking your being an English teacher a little too seriously.
