移民教師課程

已經上了兩天的課。內容很充實,相信有助于日后找教職。畢業后可以加入課程畢業生為骨干成員的新聞組,洞悉先機。某些教育局的要員會來短講,教授如何準備面試。如果靠自己收集這些資料,或許得花上好幾個月的時間去研究打聽。

課程很有用,不過不幸的是。旁邊坐了一位印度叔叔,頭上包裹著頭巾的印度叔叔。我們剛好坐在窗前,他的體香隨風飄進我的鼻孔,讓我不可能上課時打盹。導師說過每周必須換座位,讓同學們彼此認識。我必定會在周五下課前提醒導師執行這個規矩。 我也很佩服自己,偶爾也跟叔叔說說話,一點也不表現出厭惡他的體香的心理反應。這個禮拜快點過去吧。

班上百分之80都是印巴裔的同學。只有一個香港的(我),一個前蘇聯的,幾個非洲的。他們的英語不算很清楚,我想我的英語表達能力絕對不遜于他們。如果我是校長,我一定選英語講的清楚的。要不學生怎能聽明白老師講課?

Indians. They are interesting. The one sitting next to you must be a more traditional person - still has his 'head napkin' with him, and the strong smell.

Anyway, great that you find the course useful. Keep it up! And hope you successfully buy your new car soon - must send us some photos of you with your new chariot.

Hiya. I was nearly forced to move into an "Indian Lodge". I couldn't stand the smell as it was so terrible. However, by refusing to move there, I was called "a racist". I quite don't understand, they forced two Asian girls to move out because the lodge needed to be freed up for an Aussie family coming back from America, and that wasn't racial discrimination? That family is a new chair in Animal Health and a professor I assume, and that's not class discrimination??? I really can't understand why Aussies are so arrogant and self-centred.

I moved to a 5 bedroom cottage where there are two Aussie girls and an Argentina guy, and my very nice (but submissive & too obedient) Japanese housemate. The guy sometimes does not flush the toilet and leaves the "gold-mine". They never lock front door so insects big or small just fly in. ALL ARE WELCOME! They have parties every Tuesday and Thursday nights. Why can't people be more considerate???

There are spiders, cockroaches, lizards, flies, mosquitoes... a party of country species anyway. Just killed a cockroach this morning before going to bed. I trap myself in my room most of the time, as I got 4 mozzie bites the other night when I ate in the kitchen. Will try not to do it again.

Yes, and there was a FROG in the toilet bowl after I flush the toilet. I can't stand all these very long. What is God trying to let me learn on the farm???? I am a very anti-nature person - don't like animals, don't like plants, but I am surrounded by both.... I am trapped.

Oh, it is a really humbling experience to stay in another country that's not one's own home country. I feel no sense of belonging. I feel being discriminated. But what can you do if people deny they are discriminating you???
