Actually Jizzo not only Americans can speak or teach English.
But maybe you're just too narrow-minded to accept it.
Try to learn Polish and teach it as well as I teach English  |
So you are saying that because English isn't your first Language and Polish is. You are a better teacher, because you have worked above this disability??????
Jizzo never said only Americans teach English. Maybe you should take your hate for America somewhere else. |

I don't really understand why there is so much hatred in people's posts. Most of the people on this forum are being attacked because of nothing.
AND I NEVER SAID I AM A BETTER TEACHER. But what pisses me off is that most native speakers think they are good English teachers only because English is their first language.
I know he never said it, but what I wrote was a reply to his stupid question to Instana: "are you really American? Are you a native speaker?" what if she wasn't? What would it make her???
I don't hate America. I work with 2 Americans and they are wonderful people.
AND by the way I AM NOT DISABLED, AND I NEVER WAS. |

Temper, temper. Where I come from, "stupid" is a bad word.  |

Because I found it offensive to people who are not native speakers of English. |

I think the point he was making was that, if you are going to post complaints, no matter how bad you typing is, one should try to make it literate.
We are teachers afterall aren't we?????
If you post like a child don't expect to get treated like an adult. |

It's true.
Well, you made his post literate.
If he wants other people to be more literate, he should start with himself then. |
