Six high schools in junior high schools in Asia that astonished former teachers

What kind of image do you have in Asian schools? I will introduce six junior high schools and six high schools with unlikely characteristics in Japan from twelve Asian ten countries visited by former teacher me.

Hello!World newspaperA special reporterTaira Hiroyukiis. I am now in Dhaka, the capital city of Bangladesh (the star in the middle of the map) (the red line is traveling overland, the blue line is traveling by air). This is my last trip to Asia. I will come back to India in the future and I will join Pakistan.


Before I left I was a science teacher at a middle and high school. Therefore, one theme of traveling is "to visit junior high and high schools in the world". Its purpose is to "obtain a new lesson method", "know the characteristics of schools in the world", "know the realities of national students", "compare club activities with Japan".

We will introduce schools in order of the above mentioned route. Also at the end of each is an interview with the students.

◆ Japanese was compulsory in Bali
In Indonesia, I visited a public SMA NEGERI 1 KUTA high school in Bali.


Before entering the school building, it is surprising that it is the number of original churches parked around a large site. A bike society is a glimpse.


The school building was so beautiful that I could not believe it was public. I am excited to commute to work.


I entered the classroom and I was surprised by the number of students. There are about 35 classes I was in charge before, but about 50 people were here. It is a hat to teachers who are summarizing.


And I learned that Japanese is compulsory for one year. The picture is a student who came to ask with a Japanese teacher. Which is better, the question content is "Watch a movie at a movie theater with a lover" and "Watch a movie with a lover at a movie theater?" was.


She is a third grader (18 years old) Lisha. I like classes in mathematics, English, and economics. After school I worked in English clubs, and I have experienced debating awards. It was said that the dream was taking a job related to law.


From the compulsory Japanese requirement, I heard that the government is focusing on attracting Japanese tourists. We can not imagine that we have an environment to learn a second foreign language from high school students that we are saying hee hee only in English.

◆ In Kuala Lumpur sex education was held four times per week
In Malaysia, I went to a public VICTORIA INSTITUTION in Kuala Lumpur to see a traditional school that lasted more than 100 years. Junior high schools and high schools in Japan and what is called a university preparatory school are also installed, and depending on the person it belongs for seven years.


The school building was built to make you feel comfortable and the site was so big that it could not see the end.


There is a chapel (mosque) in the premises, and it can be said that Malaysia is an Islamic state.


When I heard the explanation of the schedule, I understood that gender science is done four times a week. At first I was thinking about learning about cultural and social nature, but when I looked into the class, I was studying the menstrual cycle.


And there is also the influence There are specimens of the fetus in the biological room alongside the insect specimens .... This is a surprise in Asia.


The boy student on the right is Iskander. Currently I belong to the Taekwondo club at the age of 14 (14 years old). My favorite lesson was IT, and he said that he would like to become an engineer in the future.


In Japan sex education is still prejudiced, there will be room for improvement as well.AIDS patients are rising only in developed countriesThere is also the fact that. From this visit, I was able to confirm that I would like to be a teacher that can be conveyed without worrying about sexual problems.

Also, the figure that Indian, Malay and Chinese children are studying in the same language reflected in me freshly. Therefore, it is impressive that English education is progressing, not only English but science and mathematics lessons are conducted in English.

◆ In Cambodia there was a class of "movie"
In Phnom Penh in Cambodia, I interfered with the private ELT (English Language Teaching Institute).Information from the Ministry of Foreign AffairsAccording to Cambodia, because teachers are short of teaching, only half a day classes are available in public, so it seems that students generally go to cram school or private school in vacant time. For that reason, this ELT had a one-day course and a half day course.

First of all, the appearance seems to be a part of the office of a listed company. This is Cambodia.


And when you enter inside it will be amazed by modern construction. Computers lined up in the reception desk are unified with Mac. I would like to work at such a school.


Also, the library was unified in white and seemed to come to a different country somewhere.


It is a state of English class. It covers from kindergarten to high school here, this is a classroom of primary school students. I read aloud textbooks fluently.


Also, when I showed the schedule, what a ... ... there was a movie lesson! There seem to be three theater rooms.


Right-hand girls student is Mr. Renha, a junior high school student. My favorite subject was the national language (Khmer language) and I said that I like to watch movies at school. The future dream seems to have not been decided yet.


It was a wooden school building built in the wilderness that I imagined as a school in Cambodia. But actually, there is such a modern school, and prejudice among me wiped one more.

Also, I felt it was meaningful to show students "movies". I put emphasis on the presentation of visual materials during class. It is because the students can easily image. In that respect, showing things related to lessons in movies is one of the lesson methods you want to try.

◆ Physics teacher in Hanoi was a super celebrity whose Facebook page is "10,000 good"
In Vietnam I visited this public high school in Hanoi.


There are three school buildings, and a retro atmosphere was drifting.


And this beautiful teacher, who was pleased to show you around the school, was a famous teacher of physics being picked up on TV and so on.


When I looked at his Facebook page, it was over "10,000 nice". Is there a public teacher that is famous only in Japan?


He is Ron, a senior high school student (16 years old). He is good at English and wants to work in the future that can contribute to society. After school it is a daily routine to go to an internet cafe for about 30 yen per hour.


The other day I met a traveler who was over 70 years old who was a principal at a public junior high school in Japan. He said that "closed and exclusive" is a problem of school education in Japan. It is speculation, but here in Vietnam it is because there is an open school environment contrasted with it, I called a topic and I felt that public teachers could be famous.

◆ Quiz meet was held in Nepal at week 1
In Nepal I saw a public DURBER HIGH SCHOOL in Kathmandu.


The school building was made traditional like the picture.


And on this day it was a day of quiz competition with classes coming down. All the students (about 150 people) meet in the large classroom.


The teachers will be the center and I will quiz from the things I learned everyday. This is fun because the teacher can grasp students' understanding ability.


And, (probably) the same grade is divided into five teams, competing for the results of daily study.


The team at the back answers and the team at the front seems to be disappointing. They said that such quiz tournaments and debates are held every week.


He is 18 years old Rudial. I like math and seems to be studying statistics etc after school. It is said that he wants to enter the army in the future.


It is wonderful to have gaming like this quiz tournament throughout the school. It is interesting even in Japan even if there is a quiz festival alongside athletic festival and school festival. I felt that I wanted to incorporate creating environments that I can learn while enjoying more.

◆ School in Bangladesh without a library
In Bangladesh we saw the private Al Sabah Academy in Dhaka. Elementary and junior high school students from 5 to 15 years old were learning, with girls in the morning and boys schooling time in the afternoon.


Characters such as Doraemon were drawn in the school building.


Because Bangladesh is an Islamic state, girls students often cover scarves on their heads. It seems hard to memorize and remember names (laugh).


Because there are few tourists in Bangladesh, foreigners are treated as movie stars. I am sticking to the students for signing.


In this way, I wrote my name in Japanese, I signed about 100 pieces instead of overexpressions (lol)


She is a 14-year-old Konika. I am good at cursing subjects and say that I want to become a doctor in the future. I help the house after school.


The school fee for this school is 300 taka a month (about 400 yen). Still, say that 30% of students can not pay. Also, there is no library, PC room, laboratory in this school. The English teacher who took me to the guide asked me "I can manage somehow because these are indispensable for education". I promised to write articles and make them known.

◆ Summary
What I felt throughout developing countries in Asia is that "there are better educational facilities than expected" and "Enhancement of English education". It was apparently my prejudice to study studying at a stormy wooden school building even in urban areas, and there are many children who can comfortably answer my interview in English.

By contrast, club activities are as expected. There was not a country that was as active as Japan. Finally, it is unfortunate that blackboard culture is not commonplace. About half of the tours we visited were whiteboards. I like the feel and sounds I write with chalk on the blackboard, so I felt that I would like to take this culture more importantly.

From now on I would like to tell school information from the Middle East, Africa, South America and the site.
