Various Classes in China and Canada
Class in China is different from class in Canada. In China, there are always many people in a classroom at least 40 students in a class. In the class, students have to sit on your seat decorously and can not move without agreeing by teacher, except emergency. Students should listen to teacher and take notes carefully. If you have a question or you can answer the teacher’s questions, you should raise your hand first and stand up to say something. Students always spend most time to listen to teacher and only have few minute to discuss with classmates in the class. In addition, there is always no drink and food in the class.
Class in Canada is much more flexible than class in China. Students do not have immobile seats. You can sit any seat you like and you can go out immediately. In Canada, students can ask questions and answer questions in any time, sometimes even stop teacher’s speaking. Unlike Chinese students, Canadian students always have much time to discuss with their classmates in the class. They even can speak and laugh loudly during the discussion. Canadian teachers prefer to give their students more time to discuss and let them find answer by themselves. Students even can drink and eat in the class, except in the computer library.
