I used to be a kindergarten teacher, and I know it takes tons of patience and passion. I can see you really enjoy working with kids.😂 i think sometimes we take back more than we expected. I'm glad you are doing something you enjoy doing now. Looking forward to seeing more of your videos. 😊
I can’t decide if I had stayed in Taiwan if I could have survived the schooling or not. I feel like I would be smarter. But apparently a big part of why my parents moved us back to the US (was in Taiwan 1-2nd grade in the 90s), was because I wasn’t doing well and getting anxiety. My teacher was harsh and basically would hit us with a stick based on how many questions we got wrong on tests (90 one hit, 80 two hits, etc) But hey, one nice thing is that we stayed long enough that I got dual citizenship
Well, I would guess why a native language speaker as a specified teacher face to face is a better choice for learning new languages ! That's what everyone express "quite correct" emotion to students ,in other words, it input the tones or accents directly in combination with the emotion and proper uses of words or tense in each dialogue ! And also do not mistake A.I coach for an inproper way for learning , it's powerful when you are new to a language !
My Japanese friend said she envies Americans (or anyone from an English-speaking country-I know you're Canadian) because they can teach English worldwide. A Canadian named Wes Davies in Kaohsiung also seems to be teaching English at a kindergarten. I remember one of my high school English teachers having quite inaccurate English pronunciation (there were different English teachers). They emphasized memorizing vocabulary and grammar. After all, in Taiwan, junior high and high school English education is mainly focused on entrance exams. My English improved a little only when I got to university and started visiting English websites (like LiveJournal), but my listening and speaking skills are still not very good. (My grammar isn't very good either......) When I was a child, I didn’t attend those English education kindergartens, but my grandparents sent me to a Canadian woman who was renting a flat in our building to teach me English. I remember it was twice a week, one hour per day. However, it wasn’t until junior high school that I figured out how to really learn English...... I think kids today have more resources to learn English. -------------------------------------------------- (The part where Cloud rides the motorcycle in FF7 Remake is so cool. Someone on TH-cam made a video called ‘Cloud Strife - Bad Romance’. But in real life, riding like that would be deadly......)
Nothing wrong with ‘oh man!’ followed by a snap of the fingers. Swiper from Dora the Explorer says it all the time. Toddlers love it because it’s fun and easy to say 😂
The education at elementary school level isn't that bad. I would never put my own child through JH or SH in Taiwan. That's where the workload gets really crazy. I do know other foreigners who have put their kids through the entire system and their kids survived just fine. A western style education is really expensive but available in Taiwan. What might really blow your mind would be spending time with Singaporeans and Malaysians (there are plenty of them working in Hsinchu) who are totally fluent in English but have a very Asian worldview as regards education and life in general. There is an element of competitiveness here in Asia that you don't encounter as much in the sparsely populated west. The western system is what it is because of different spatial realities - realities that influenced our culture and worldview more than we oftentimes are mindful of.
When I was in Taiwan as a grade school student, a teach could SLAP a kid's face point blank and get away with it and one of the punishments was to place your knees on top of an abacus for misbehaving for the _entire_ duration of the lecture (usually 45 minutes). Looking back it was wild bordering on child abuse! Good times, good times. But we all turned out alright. :D (I should know, I received BOTH punishments on the _same day!_ Gen Z kids are soft.
While I love life in tw, there’s two things I would never do: 1. Work an office job there and 2. Put my children through their education system and I’m sure most tw locals would agree with me. The reason why school is so competitive in tw is so those with the best grades can go to the best schools and hopefully get jobs outside the country. A vicious and demoralizing cycle for locals.
"Since the beginning of this year, a total of 2.961million Taiwan people have entered the mainland, up 68.4% year-on-year. At the same time, the number of Taiwan compatriots applying to settle in the mainland has exceeded the total of the previous 10yrs." It looks like a lot of the news about Taiwan independence is just smoke from Western media. They won't let it go like we almost let Quebec go since the US is using it as an aircraft carrier.

謝謝您的分享🤗
That book looked really interesting! I'm really interested in how it ends.
It took ages to convince the kids not to kill off every single character
@@Prozzie 🤣
Prozzie read the whole book in episode #108 of the Allan and Prozzie podcast.
Indeed, your contribution to the kids' future is significant! Thank you! 🙏
You are a good teacher
Thanks!
對孩子有耐心、有包容心的好老師，除了專業，身教對孩子也是很重要的，謝謝對台灣小孩的付出。

Useful content Prozzie. Thanks for posting.
Thanks!
一直支持你！很開心看到你分享教學的故事和真摯的感情，期待下一支影片！
你的故事非常有啟發性，讓我想起我也曾經教小朋友英文的經歷。
最近我發現 elsa 是一個很好的工具，可以幫助我提升英語的各方面技巧。
我特別喜歡 elsa 的互動式練習，讓我能夠跟著模仿發音，真的幫助我改善了口音。
此外，應用中的即時反饋也讓我更清楚自己的發音問題，感覺進步非常快！
我曾經考慮過教小朋友英文，而你的故事讓我深受啟發。
我也有一點在當地教孩子的經驗，但有時會遇到在全面說英語上的困難。
最近我決定使用 elsa speak 來提升我的英語口說能力，
發現這個應用真的非常有效，讓我在教學時更有自信。
可以感覺到你和孩子們相處得很好，孩子們很喜歡你，你在他們的童年回憶中是特別的存在，我相信他們不會忘記你。😊😊
Awesome to see Glory again. ❤
看完影片讓我想起我自己在學英文的挑戰。
你的經歷很鼓勵人，尤其是你說到小朋友們的成長。順便提到，我最近在用 elsa，真的有幫助我提高發音呢！

Really good video, Prozzie. You explained very well how it was and how it really affected you.

Would you produce some videos about your professional knowledge and experience or opinions on teaching children?
Thank you❤
These jobs never mention housing, which is essential to live in a foreign country.
I think a lot of Americans could use ELSA! 🤣💪
a big heart!
好可愛瘋狂天馬行空的書喔，老師是小朋友心中的神和信仰，很不容易。I like your education way, learning is playing. sometimes, I feel the kids teach me a lot too.
能成為你的學生，他們真的很幸運喔！

又來看Prozzie了，廢話不多說趕緊先按個讚
Propeller Mushroom is a mascot, deffo.

Do you need a degree to teach English or would a TEFL certificate be enough?
You need a bachelors degree

對 這教育制度要改 小時候數學學不好老師直接打巴掌 音樂課直笛不會吹 那個中國老師用威壓的 強迫全部學生不准與你交流 直到會吹那該死的直笛..
