Oh Korea…

Filed under: Uncategorized — Ryan @ 1:03 pm

I would love to blog more, but lately I have been as busy as a jew next to a shallow water fountain.  But today I was really pissed off at work and thought I would vent.

I love Korea, I like teaching and I even like Koreans sometimes.  But they are some of the least rational people on the planet.  Among the countless irrational things they do, two have stuck out today.

1.  They leave the god damn caps off of the dry erase markers. 

Sometimes at the end of class, we will play hangman to kill some time.  And, like clockwork, the last person with the marker puts it back on the tray with the cap still on the wrong end of the marker.  I can’t decide whether they can’t put 2 and 2 together that the marker will dry out or if, since the marker isn’t theirs or their amazing fantastic parent’s, they just don’t care.  Either way it pisses me off.

2.  When they cheat, THEY DON’T ERASE THE EVIDENCE.

Each day, every class has to do a word test.  Basically, they are given anywhere from 30-70 words in Korean and expected to translate them to English.  Well, they know every word and the order of the exam.  Needless to say, cheating is hardly a difficult task.  And a popular method is to write some of the words on their desk in pencil to reference during the test.  Now, I walk around, but their arms and test papers can often conceal their handy work.  So, inevitably, kids are getting away with it.  I catch a fair deal, but I can’t catch them all.  Until they leave my class 50 minutes later.  Then, I can walk around and look at the desks.  And, amazingly, they don’t erase the evidence.  It’s unbelievable.  They make a great effort to cheat, get away with it, and then leave it there to be found.  It is like robbing a bank, getting away with it, and turning yourself in.  It boggles the mind.  And I talked to a Korean teacher about it and she couldn’t really see my point.  But what can you expect from a society that teaches that you can get taller from playing basketball and an electric fan will kill you, but more on those later.
