Farewell to Korean study tour kids
It has been a fruitful experience teaching Korean high school kids from vocational training schools.Full of energy and curiosity,they had a fantastic time adapting to a multicultural nation,sampling exotic food,immersing in trips to Batu Caves,Putrajaya pink mosque,drawing kolam designs for Deepavali n dressing up for Halloween party.They love the diverse experiences of pasar malams,trips to Pasar Seni,Chinatown,Petronas Twin Towers,KL Towers,Sunway Pyramid,Pavilion,Mid Valley Megamall,Dataran Merdeka and the use of LRT to get around.
From knowing next to nothing about Malaysia,they fell in love with our friendly people and diverse cultures from modern architecture to traditional buildings.im gonna miss them a lot as theyre on the thresh hold to transition from school to the adult working world.its refreshing to work with youthful energetic youths.Their education systems groom young people well for their future career as they re equipped with technological skills like software programming to technical skills like culinary and hospitality or horticultural skills of urban farming.
The education system trains them well in holistic way from oral hygiene to physical fitness.Most are active in sports from football,badminton,basketball ,skateboarding,wall climbing,jogging or gym.They dont suffer the obesity issue of Malaysian youths who eat like there is no tomorrow and hates to exercise.
Our education system is in shambles with politicking overiding everything else.there is no critical thinking or communication skills except spoon feeding and cram schools.There is no meeting global education standard like Singapore or China but a dumbing down of young brains.A mind is a terrible thing to waste.
