Oh and I thought this thread was going to be about punishing corporal cause someone had gotten tired of her bitching.

Like I said, this was a public elementary school, not a hagwon, and I never did use it on the kids, not even the scissor throwing maniac. Evil or Very Mad

The baton twirling thing was all about intimidation. Twisted Evil

Much more effective, as was the occasional sharp tap on a student's desk

You know the one about the teacher who showed up in class one day wearing an upperbody cast under his shirt. The window was open and his tie was being blown about by a breeze. In frustration, he picks up a stapler and staples the tie to his chest. The students never misbehaved again! Yeah!

On the other hand, in the land of the evening screeches by students all across this lovely (ahem) country, I had to whack one brat across the head with the plastic ruler because he said 'go ja' and 'shibal' and did not know that I understood what he was saying to me. Had to whack the little blister three times before the old braincells kicked in and he realized that hey, the teacher actually knows what I'm saying. Would have loved to have kicked his sorry ass as well, right across the room in fact, but sanity prevailed at the last moment and I did not get the satisfaction I thought I deserved. Oh, well. ....

This past week a student of mine walked into class looking very stiff and in pain. What's up I ask. "Teacher punishment" was the reply. So I figure the student got rapped rather badly.
What kind of punishment I ask..

Had to stand up and sit down 700 times in 2 days for being late.

I thought that was pretty creative....

The problem is, in most hagwons, the kids can not be hit. And they know it.

They know if they pull that shit at the public school tey get the crap kicked out of them.

the vice director at the first hogwan i worked at hit the kids on occasion. I one kid was p*ssed off at me and said in korean do you want to die. actually knowing this phrase I grabed the kid by the shirt and pushed him into the hall. then i got the Vice director. The VD got out the beating stick and whacked the kid about five times on the butt. WHile i didn't go to the director with the idea of getting the kid beaten, i felt only a little bad that got whacked a few times.
