Nose Jobs: Thai Fashion Statement or Beauty Fail?
Beauty is very subjective. I think they look awful and flat noses look better. Thai people seem to disagree. -

Whistleblower Alleges Normalized Anti-Semitism at the BBC
You should care what the BBC does. It churns out statements and biased opinions that act against peacemaking efforts. If an organization with significant reach keeps repeating falsehoods and reinforcing bias, it undermines the efforts of the Arabs and Israelis who have made efforts and tried to bring a peaceful resolution. -

Bad experience teaching in Thailand
It sounds like teaching younger students might not be the best use of your qualifications. Additionally, many teachers prefer not to teach the younger kids because it can be like herding cats 🙂 Plus you need to understand that young kids are not going to sit quietly for any length of time. I teach KG and primary, mostly in Burma. I 'fell into' this role, and the ease of the teaching appeals to me. (No difficult questions from some smart high school students!). As for not touching the kids, (I mean in a motherly or fatherly way), here in Burma the teacher takes the role of parent while the young student is at school. So if you're not happy doing this, (which is totally the opposite of UK/EU attitudes), then you might appear standoffish. I'm one of the most popular primary age teachers at my school, and in 6 months I'll be 66 years old.... Simon (father/stepfather of 8 kids!) -
