----- Original Message ----- From: "Lindsey Gutt" <lindsey@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Subject: English Teacher on Eretz Nehederet I currently live in Toronto, Canada after teaching in Israel for 12 years. I too have been watching the English teacher on Eretz Nehederet and am amazed at how they have really hit the nail on the head! As I am laughing my head off I keep saying to my husband - "That is really how it is"!!!! The sad thing is that teachers in Israel today see this as the norm... You guys are really doing a fabulous and especially difficult job - pity that you are not compensated more!

"This is exactly how it is," I managed to utter between paroxysms of laughter. Is it pathetic? Oh yes and the trendy idea that twitter and facebook are the only things that separate a successful educational system from a system that's out of touch. I think we should have an ETNI poll:How did you react to the Eretz Nehederet skit? Laughter orimmediate voluntary commitment to Beit Levenstein for rehabilitation. ----------------------------------------------- ** Etni homepage - http://www.etni.org or - http://www.etni.org.il ** ** for help - ask@xxxxxxxx ** ** to post to this list - etni@xxxxxxxxxxxxx ** -----------------------------------------------
