Dear pals

I am Arthur. This is my first time to be a host in YoYo English club. There are many excellent teachers here. We would like to know your opinion more about student management.
You could refer the article from the followed link
http://www.studioclassroom.com.tw/ad/ad08/ad0805_13.htm
The proposed Questions:
Q1: Had you ever met any naughty classmates or students before? How do you feel about them? Had they any strange action to give you deep impression. Please share these experiences for us?
Q2: Could you agree with punishing children (or students)? Why or why not?
Q3: Could you suggest some useful or creative methods to manage the naughty kids?
Q4: How do you feel about the alternative education? (ex. The Forest Elementary School 森林小學 ) Do you feel it’s more useful than traditional styles of education?

Basically, I don't think the Forest Elementary School is suitable in the education system in Taiwan. Many parents who let their children study in Forest Elementary Scool regret what they did. Because they finally find their children don't know how to get along with others, especially when their children have to work in a team. The students feel so-called free and never want to obey the disciplines in junior high schools. They even have a big problem when they are old enough to serve in the army. The situation really happen to someone who I know. They have different philosophy of life. Generally speaking, they are isolated from the society. It's so horrible.

I agree with your point of view. I think this may be the reason why the "forest elementary school" had once been very hot, and then never heard of that.
Besides, I think most of the social problems should be attributed to the bad acts of politicians. They are teaching everyone to be dishonest, to be selfish, and to be irresponsible. This is something we regret the most.
