Solving the problem between ethnic groups and SPDC in Burma
If I am a president of USA right now, I have a dream that one day in Burma will become a federal democratic /a peaceful country. Because firstly, I will be publish of all real happen in the Burma news on the world to know a bout the Burma was not fair for other ethnic groups. And then, I have to pressure of all ethnics for negotiation to solve the problem on Burma is the best way with fair/equal solution. Second, I will be negotiating with the SPDC general Than Shwe, and NLD to get their agreement. And then, I will be discussing with internationals families to participation the activities to change on the Burma situation especially for ethnic groups to get their interdependent/peaceful country. Therefore, at that time there will no more discrimination between Burmese and other ethnic groups. And then, there will be a free economic system, a qualified education system, fair salary for all the workers, and have a chance to get a passport easily. Finally, the people from the Burma who had stated under the Burma-law controller, at this time they will be lives in peaceful their country.

Reflection of Mr. Sai Yawrd's Questions


Studying English
In the past when I was study in English, it’s the most important of my study and very interested to learn until now. I have been studying since I was in Primary school until to the post ten levels. But I didn’t learn systematically. For example a bout the essay and writing a paragraph I hadn’t learn well how to write step by step like we are learning in here. So, I couldn’t write by my own idea and I haven’t ever to practice to write like essay. But in grammar I had learn better than writing and had a practice to the test quizzes, and exam. Sometime, when I finished my study in high school my brother and I were practice in speaking English. Because I was real want to improve my English skill. But in my organization we didn’t practice to speak English just only used our mother language and Burmese language so I didn’t improve my English skills. However, I’m now studying in this Wide Horizons; I’m really having a good chance to improve my English skills. For the reason that, right now my teacher’s teaching a lot of English skills for us such as “Writing, Reading, Speaking, and listening skills. And our teacher could teach very well for us so I am really enthusiastic to study English and until today. Finally, English subject is the most interest studying and very useful for me.

Reflection of "Sai Oo" question

Difference betweens Wide Horizons and my last school “Grading and Teaching Method”.

The last school when I was attended at the KnTTC (Karenni Teacher Training Center) for two years. In that school, especially train for teachers who want to be a teacher and subject coordinator. Right now I would like to comparing difference betweens WH and my last school at KnTTC (Karenni Teacher Training Center). Grading and teaching method are a little different to learning in here and my last school. First of all, in here there are grading from the beginning of the school to the last final exam. For example, teacher give a lot of different grading such as quizzes, participation skill, attendance, homework, test, and final exam. Even though we pass or fail. At that time, teachers are meeting with us face to face and evaluate which part is our weak point and we done well or not well. Teacher comment us and gave our marks. And which part is we need to improve more. As a result, It good benefit for us. My last school was grading a little different in here. They used to grading (continuing assessment, quizzes, attendance, homework, and final exam). Even we pass or fail those of exams teacher give (plus and minus). For example, If we pass those exams we will see our grade as (A+/A, B+/B, C+/C etc). At that time, when we finished our each semester exams, teachers gave us report cards but teachers didn’t meet with us one by one. Another one is teaching method. It’s very different teaching method in this WH school and my last school. Because my last school mostly teachers were following by text book. Thus, sometime student was boring. In this Wide Horizons is very different teaching method. In here, our teacher’s use a lot of different styles. Such as every class teacher changing styles. At that time, mostly student hadn’t boring and very exciting, and very interested. For example, every student are can participation, can using freely our critical thinking. Therefore, it’s very different between in grading and teaching method in this Wide Horizons and my last school when I was attended from that.

The last first semester, I understanding part is “Independent Clause and Dependent Clause in English class. Firstly, I was very confused a bout it. Because I never heard before what is Independent Clause and dependent Clause. At that day, teacher’s taught a bout it and explaining two or three times for us. So, I understudied a little. And then, teacher’s gave homework a bout it. At that time, I usually make mistake because I couldn’t divided well which one is IC sentences and DC sentences. After then, I tried to remember the formulas: Such as DC, IC. IC DC. IC. IC. For example: (When I was learning a bout the IC and DC, it was very confused for me. It’s DC,IC.

Reflection for " Teacher Kelly" on wednesday lesson

If I have to meet with the community leaders, villagers, and workers for survey to get real information. I should have ability that such as “knowledge skills, sympathy, trustworthiness, tolerance, enthusiasm, dignity, honesty, and fairness, equity etc… Because those skills is very useful for me when I have to go survey with the community leaders, villagers, and workers. Before, I have learned theses skills from the teacher “Kelly” on the Wednesday. I had a few experience when I went to survey in my community a bout the education level in each section. At that time, I though that this characters I have already used some of characters according to my experience. But, at that time I didn’t know exactly a bout it. Now I have already learned specific from the teacher “Kelly”. So, I knew more than before I was worked in the past. All of the characteristics: my strong points are trustworthiness, tolerance, fairness, equity, and sympathy. Because, If I’m meet with the community leaders, villagers, and worker. At first, I have to build trustworthiness each other. And then, whatever, I discuss/do with them. I must keep tolerance, fairness, equity, and sympathy in my mind. Therefore, I stronger believe that these characteristics is real usefully for us next week when begin our community project.
These characteristics: I real need to learn/improve more these skills that such as “knowledge skills, courage, and good decision etc. Because, this is very important for me when I go to do that community project to reach my goal and to be success. I don’t have enough abilities this skill. I can’t get real information from that community. But now I just only request from the teacher at that time, I understanding what’s mean and what’s teacher teach. In the realistic, I can’t apply it. However, the next week we will have a chance to begin our community project. At that time, I’ll be applying these skills as much as I can what I had learned from that. During I am doing with that community leaders, villagers, and workers, if I don’t have enough knowledge skills, and don’t have good decision-making from that. I though that, I can’t do effective this activities when I meet with that. However, I need to using this skills and If I can’t successful to reach my goal. At that time, I will never step back it for our community project and need to reflection from that. And then, I believe that this is the first experience our community from that and need to adaptation until to success our goal.
