VIP Class Notes (JJ)

I want to go to England but the Covid 19 … I worry about that girl because someone could bully her. I want to change jobs. I planned to work at Shanghai Museum but they only want international students.

In China, teachers just talk and then give some homework and text more. Don’t care that children have 长处，亮点。China is still a developing country.

Revised:

In China, teachers just talk and then give some homework and give a lot of tests. They don’t care about whether children have any strengths or interests.

I want to go to England but with Covid 19, international travels are not allowed at the moment.
