5. Reasons we have Taiwanese Teachers • They are native experts. • They help students, too. • They know students. • Don’t hug me! • They can speak Mandarin! • Writing and grammar • Taiwanese teachers are local experts. • Help!

10. Let’s make an agreement • Hold weekly planning meetings. • Things recommended: a schedule whiteboard & a job allotment form. • Consult your co-teacher before making big decisions. • Define your role: take turns to be the teaching teacher and the assistant teacher. • Make a plan B for abrupt situations. • Find out the truth of slow students’ learning.

11. To Chinese Teacher Use the monthly assessment form to show your expectation. Handle the special students. Pass down school’s policy in time. How much do you translate? The use of microphone. It’s difficult to be a supervisor and co-worker at the same time. Build up your English ability.

12. To Foreign Teacher Use simple English to teach. Use tips instead of repetitions to teach. Control your emotion and no physical touch to the students. Follow the school’s daily schedule as Taiwanese teachers do. Plan your personal trip well. Learn some classroom Chinese. Expand your social life at school.
