I declined my tutorial to young Korean students

So true Ms. Christine, so horrible first time to experience like this.

@DianneN, that is correct, that was also my suggestion to hire Korean national who can teach English so they can have better understanding. It's truly hard especially I'm too fast . It's only one and one half hours. I thought they had prior knowledge of the speech sounds, none so critical .

@DianneN Thank you Dianne, they paid me by the way of my service to those Koreans. My friend begged me to continue my tutorial for the Korean parents like my style. I brought my own projector with slides containing speech sounds, tongue drills, math shapes, sizes, figures and tables of multiplication, but I noticed they were so terrified . Their parents were there observing me. Only their Filipina moms attending their dads at their business in Cagayan de Oro city and others there in South Korea. The parents also begged me to continue but I told them that I am going to recommend my best friend who is teaching English and math in Seoul , Korea for four years. She will be home end of this week to have a vacation. She told me she will be in our city for 5 months good enough to serve these Korean students.

@cacay1 You are right and I don’t blame you.

@cacay1 takes lots 'f practice to master other languages, particularly if'n they differ so much from ones own. hopefully'n time, if'n they're serious 'bout learnin', they'll take the time.

@crazyhorseladycx they better have been taught well during their kinder schooling so these kids won't suffer like this. They need daily tongue exercise through tongue twisters so they can soften their jaws, cavities and mouths. The should be required to speak in English and have a bond with city kids so they can acquaint themselves with the pronunciation of some difficult words. They need to improve their diction. I lack patience of this kind of students from other country whose language is not English. I had two Korean college student in the university. He was sent by their government to enroll in the university where I am teaching. I found it hard to teach the guy, but he strove hard, so he was able to pass, at least he's already mature in his 20's. he graduated last April this year and now he is back to Korea.

@crazyhorselady, so true. Just imagine the word stone, they can't say it . They pronounce it as "lon" hahaha so funny yet disgusting. I told myself to better go home and sleep

@Bensen32, yes, it did not. It needs more hours and my time allotment for the 9 of them is just one hour trice a week tutorial . It's good only for one month, too short. They need to learn the basics. It seems frustrating for they keep on looking at their gadget interpreter . It takes some minutes and the school head begs me to help them improve their standard which is impossible due to short span of time and their classroom experience with their previous teachers.

@Bensen32 , they paid me and they understood why I declined .

@cacay1 Seems a lot of aggravation, hope it pays well.

@ raveeen, yes pretty lady . Why should I sacrifice that way.

@raveeen thanks cute, I have found but I'll verify it if legit or not.

@cacay1 Yes you're right, You can find other jobs that you'll be enjoy with

@JasminRuru that is supposed to be , that is why I was so shocked why they cannot utter some sounds and read figures in basic algebra.

Haha, they're truly pitiful. I learned there were many tutors before me who declined too, Almost 5 of then. It's a disaster .

@cacay1 they should learn the basic

@cacay1 Maths seems to be a global language

@youless , math is a subject and course.

@youless, I'm hired to tutor plus I'm teaching mathematics and physics not English. To tutor them in English is just an addendum of my expertise per se, plus they are 12 years old . They have to blame their previous teacher for not helping them improve their four communicative skills.

It will be better for their own English and math teacher to tutor them after their class. It's hard to bet their tongue.

@cacay1

@TiarasOceanView , yes hehehe hard as a rock. They need to soften their upper and lower jaws to function well their cavities

@just4him, Thank you Valerie, I am so sorry too to those Korean kids. They better watch YouTube and listen to English movies to augment their understanding of the spoken English. They can read so slowly but speaking is so hard for them.

@cacay1 I hope they do too.

@JudyEv, it's really frustrating for instead of repeating what I say, they use instead their gadget interpreter that's why hard for them to understand .

@JudyEv , yet possible hehehe . They are used to communicate with their own lives language. It's truly hard to teach them .they are restless.

@cacay1 That sounds an impossible situation.

@DesirousDreamer, they are 12 years old. They better hire Korean national who can teach English and math hehe. I brought with me my projector and different slides of speech sounds and figures in fruits forms and shapes, they were terrified hahaha. They were not taught well in their previous level. So pitiful but I can't anymore continue.its so disgusting .

Hehe thanks .

Hehehe
