I worked in Thailand before China teaching many different subjects including Math and PE.
What I learned from teaching in China is that it is more difficult here as culturally China isn't as westernised as other Asian countries and it is harder to control a class of 70+. The class size is detrimental to the students learning but it is necessity it seems. China has a very strict and written test oriented visual of language which may lead to an easily quantitative vision of achievement but it doesn't take into account creativity and that’s where I have to come in and try to encourage it. Students need a more western approach for the future and it is slowly becoming visible in the students.
I have learned most Students aren't used to freedom in the classroom and they don't know what to do. They are used to having much information drilled into them and when someone like myself who worked with students in a more liberal setting and saw a great increase in English acquisition as students felt that I was interesting and learned more because they gained respect. In Chinese High school there was a little of this respect from the students as they were interested in my history and who I am and knew I was trying my best to give them the quality they deserve and give the respect and maturity they deserve. I don't feel the same with middle school the students are immature and don't have any real direction while at the time in England at there age they will be looking to the future.
Teaching from a Book isn't my style it is limiting and dependency limits a teaches ability, I find it would be better to work from a syllabus than some book which lacks any balance. Students deserve a more experimental style and from what the students say they need some entertainment and I find once I get the students caught in with my personality they learn quicker and are more willing to participate.
Living in China isn't easy for me, but that's more because of my personality is someone who likes to be coupled and likes someone to basically control my actions a little as I am easily distracted. Many thanks to them!

教学经历：
来中国之前在泰国任教，教授了包含数学和体育在内的多种学科。由于中国文化并不像亚洲的其他国家那么西方化，使得我深深感觉到在这里任教的难度要高于其他地方，并且管好一个人数超过70人的班级也不容易。班级人数如此众多并不利于学生的学习，但目前看来这种情况是必须的。中国采取非常严格的书面考试来确定语言实际化成效。不可否认，这很容易量化成就，但确没有考虑到学生创造力的培养，而这也是我必须努力的方向。今后，学生需要的是更加西方化的教学方法，这一重要性已经慢慢地在学生身上得到体现。
其次，我发现绝大部分同学不习惯课堂中的“自由”，也不知道要做什么。他们更习惯被灌输大量的信息。不过，当有人，比如说我，和学生在一个更加自由的环境下工作，你会发现学生的语言提高的很快。因为，他们觉得我很有趣，得到了尊重，更愿意学习。在中国的高中，学生得到了一部分这样的尊重，因为他们对我的人生经历和我是谁感兴趣，也知道我会尽全力给他们应得的教学质量，让他们感到充分的尊重和不断成熟。然而，在初中，面对学生我并没有这样的感觉，他们很不成熟，对人生没有任何想法，而同年龄的英国学生已经在思考未来了。
按书教学不是我的风格，这极具局限性也限制了一位老师的能力。我发觉按照大纲教学比按缺乏平衡的书本教要有用的多。学生应该得到一种更加实验化的风格教学。从学生说他们需要一些娱乐活动，我发现一旦他们被我的人格所吸引，他们学的会更快并更愿意参与课堂。
对我来说在中国生活并不容易，但这更多的是因为我的个性，我是一个喜欢成对的人，喜欢有人能在某种程度上控制我行为的人，因为我很容易分心。我的助教，从之前的Duyiya到现在的Cherry都很好，他们凭借平衡的个性和自身天赋很好的完成了工作。感谢他们！
