Classroom Revealed





The teachers stand at the platform for most of the class, they even have students who mark down who has done the homewrok. They only walk down when they are lecturing and checking to make sure people are not asleep.

My Chinese friends have many many many clever ways of sleeping in class without being caught. (Several different "studious" positions. Hahaha!)


This could be the hottest place on earth. Sometimes the students don't turn on the air conditioners and just the fans. Even though we have two air conditioners... and four fans the room is still pretty hot, yes even worse than Arizona. The heat here is wet.

It looks like the classrooms at Nishiyamato! Except they had sliding doors ... And no Chinese flag, obviously ... xD It was really hot and humid in Japan too, I feel your pain. You should carry a fan with you - I mean like the kind you wave to fan yourself, not like a giant electric fan (that would be kind of hard to carry around).
