Basically aimed at those struggeling with english and school in general. This also applies to the trade schools..<br /><br />Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00865664004845944171noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2761684730989137546.post-65997454898616527782016-07-11T16:28:17.270-04:002016-07-11T16:28:17.270-04:00The fact is that is probably impossible to get a h...The fact is that is probably impossible to get a handle on how Chinese think with out knowing Chinese well and living among Chinese people for a while. That is true of other cultures, too, although the differences may not be as great.Tom Hickeyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08454222098667643650noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2761684730989137546.post-77240005629773915092016-07-11T15:50:05.099-04:002016-07-11T15:50:05.099-04:00I'm suspecting you don't want to understan...I'm suspecting you don't want to understand...Peter Panhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09473311771939167712noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2761684730989137546.post-41709230399659687802016-07-11T11:25:49.851-04:002016-07-11T11:25:49.851-04:00"You don’t understand the Chinese mindset.&qu..."You don’t understand the Chinese mindset."<br /><br />a truer statement has never been made....Matt Frankohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11978352335097260145noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2761684730989137546.post-37295830238403941562016-07-11T10:48:24.703-04:002016-07-11T10:48:24.703-04:00We, on the other hand, insist that our students gr...We, on the other hand, insist that our students grow up learning only one language, English. And even that is poorly attained.<br /><br />Instead of making it a mandatory requirement that you cannot graduate from high school without being able to read, write, and speak English, Mandarin and a romance language choice (Spanish, French, Italian, etc).<br /><br />Norway has four language requirements: Norwegian, English, and two electives. Can’t graduate from high school without them.MRWhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13878920695841363553noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2761684730989137546.post-63147242967943357282016-07-11T10:43:27.182-04:002016-07-11T10:43:27.182-04:00Uhhhhhh, no.

(No different than rich kids wanting to attend Oxford and Cambridge instead of Harvard or Yale at the turn of the 20th C.)<br /><br />And they know that <i>because of the education they get in China</i>--specifically in maths and science--that they can ace getting into US universities if they apply in time to meet the US-univ foreign student quotas.<br /><br />Having a US degree also confers a Chinese student’s ability to converse, read, and write in English at a scholarly level which increases their job opportunities at home.MRWhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13878920695841363553noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2761684730989137546.post-18405356758734204902016-07-11T10:27:40.584-04:002016-07-11T10:27:40.584-04:00Uhhhhh their own people don't even want to go ...Uhhhhh their own people don't even want to go to school there?Matt Frankohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11978352335097260145noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2761684730989137546.post-63414031148969826982016-07-11T06:59:32.178-04:002016-07-11T06:59:32.178-04:00"Buyers from China were more likely to purcha..."Buyers from China were more likely to purchase residential property for the use of a child studying at a US university.
