[quote=DODGER,384968]I was talking to a Chinese teacher just the other day. She was explaining that at the beginning of every term the teachers have to give the parents a demonstration class so they can decide if the teacher is any good. I asked if this also applied to doctors and airline pilots. Further, if the student fails the teacher carries the can! So teaching in China is a real pressure job. I think the rote learning that Griz is referring to comes from the fact that the language is symbol based, not phonetic, so the only way to learn 10,000 plus symbols is by rote learning. Dodger.
