You need to teach with more passion. Some students are boring.
We have many complaints. Teach more like Martin. He's been here for four years. All the students want Martin back. Martin has such good manners. He stands whenever somone enters the room. He eats many Korean food.

The Hookers on the calling cards are all from Japan.

Sashimi and Sushi comes from Korea.

Korea has the most beautiful temples in Asia.

The Kimono is based on the Hanbook.

Minsu is not aware of how rude the F word is.

Korean students are very well behaved you won't need anyone to help you with discipline.

Most American soldiers have criminal records back home.

We beat them becouse we love them.

There is no racism in Korea.

There is no pre-maritual sex in Korea.

The beaches on Jeju Island are more beautiful than those in Phuket.

Jeju Island is Sub-Tropical.

You're students are misbehaving becouse they are bored.

The Majority of the brothels in Korea are in Iteawon.

Iteawon is very dangerous.

American soldiers and English teacher create a lot of crime in Korea.

The Students are very curious about you they have prepared so many questions. No need to make a lesson for the first day.

Native Speakers proof- read all the dialogues in the textbook.

Our typical lessons are very similar to this open lesson.

The teacher before you was very lazy and rude.

This is the genius class, But they are a little shy. No need to use a textbook. They want free talking.

Actually, I agree with most of these statements, except that I've never heard number 2, number 3, number 4, 6, 7, 8 , 9 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 18, or 19 except on ESL Cafe, and I get out a lot and have met a ton of Korean people over the years. Some have said things about non-coms in regard to number 7, but I have always mentinoed to them about how a lot of people where I lived for awhile back home (which is a place with a number of military bases nearby) had the same sentiments because of how some of such members act when drunk and go on a power trip. 20 was pretty much true, because I met the guy before he left. Whatever ones I missed may be things I've heard before, but a lot seem to be the stuff I catch from NETs here who don't have much sincere appreciation for the culture or strong enough command of the language.
