so do you think its too much to ask for a copy machine to print off worksheets?
I'm having to create lesson plans out of thin air and a horrible book. And they want me to do "conversation" classes half the week but with no materials. |

Don't you think you should be telling them this?
I imagine you have.
Just teach crap from the book, then add your own stuff by writing on the board.
Once you learn more about teaching, you'll be able to pull a lot more out of you butt and come up with good material to replace or expand on the crap in that book. Write on the board. It wasn't that many decades ago that copiers didn't exist. |

True. And teaching, by necessity, was more teacher-oriented. |

Oh, yeah, I forgot... people need to claim that the last several thousand years of learning was crap, and that new methods have been "discovered" so that they can justify the pay for those shiny new Ph.D's/MA's and whatnot.
You don't need a copy machine for learning to not be teacher-centered. |
