For my kids sake, I hope not. Maybe some of the Indians that have been here a while will speak
pretty good english or if they are specifically trained to be better at it. I had a bad experience
in college with two Indian TAs teaching some math class and a physics lab. I couldn't understand
much of what they said. On reflection, I should have asked for my money back for those classes.
<<<<<<<<<Leo J. Mauler>>>>>> Then again, that physical presence doesn't need to know anything more
than Crowd Control and how to operate the machinery. We may yet see our education outsourced to
India, with the actual teachers in India and the unskilled manual laborers taking care of the
classrooms. And with the
"guest worker" program, we may end up seeing America's classrooms staffed by unskilled Mexicans
(who know how to shout down a classroom and also how to turn the monitor on and off) and
video-linked Indian teachers, with born or naturalized Americans only holding administrative
positions in the schools.
