They always have employed Jordanians as English teachers. It's a multi-national staff room. Geez, they even employ the Irish, would you believe! When I was there, the Sudanese old duffers were the favourites among students as they would invariably nod off mid-lesson. |
yes egyptians as coordinators, sudanese, lebanese.....irish, english, indian candians, americans, who are the worst employees, and phillipino, Australian and new Zealand as well as South African. |
Hey there ultraman, I'm an American living in The Philippines and the worst western expats to be around are the Brits. They are still crying about the loss of America that happened during the reign of King George. They also think it a disgrace that the world has moved on from British spellings and grammar in favor of Standard North American English.
Those Brits also have their own social groups and barely tolerate other POMS such as Australians, Canadians and Kiwis. They tend to be arrogant and about as well liked as Koreans here in The Philippines. That behavior does not seem to be prevalent when teaching in places such as KSA, Korea, Viet Nam and Japan. It occurs once they move away from Mother England and are surrounded by other people. |
