it's not kan't-ji; it's kan-ji!



que me recuerda mucho la frase de Bernard Shaw: He who can, does. He who cannot, teaches. Pero nunca pensé que esto aplicara a el maestro de matematicas en Osaka no podía ni leer los kanjis básicos.



The Osaka city education board dismissed a 56-year-old male math teacher who answered incorrectly more than half the questions in a Japanese kanji examination for the elementary school level. The teacher at a school for children with disabilities got only 47% of the answers correct in the kanji test for students aged 9 to 12.


que poniendome el sombrero del abogado del diablo (en este caso del maestro de Osaka) la parte importante es: The teacher at a school for children with disabilities... Digo a lo mejor los niños no podían leer por esas discapacidades... y el maestro tenía que hablarles las lecciones. Lo que hubiera explicado su falta de conocimiento de los kanjis... then again how did he become a teacher if he can't freaking read the math textbooks...




Osaka fires 2 teachers, including one for lacking kanji knowledge
