How are the Early Childhood Educators Going to Enforce the Rules so the Children Can Have Good Habits if the Student-Teacher Ratio Doesn’t Get Decreased

in an early childhood classroom…see how there are only THREE children???

Problems that surfaced, in the realms of Early Childhood Education here, from the Newspapers, translated…

The Education Department surveyed and found, that the early childhood educators called for lowering the teacher student ratios, that the rules which are in place right now had become, outdated, that it hadn’t been amended for thirty years now.

“In order to give children proper early childhood education, there must be a reduce of student-teacher ratio”. The department manager, Wang, of Early Childhood Education Department from the Taipei City University stated, that the younger the children, the lower student to teacher ratio should be, in England and U.S. the ratios are one adult to eight children, but in Taiwan, the class ratio for two year-olds are one adult to eight children, and for the age group of three to five, it’s one adult to fifteen children, this had not changed, since 1981. And, in order to help the kids establish their own schedules, to help them become self-governing, there would be a need to decrease the student teacher ratio.

Lin gave the examples from the forefront of education the dinosaur parents are overly protective of their own young, and demanded the teachers too much, causing every single child in the preschool to become “well-kept chickens”, couldn’t feed, dress, or go to the potty by themselves.

And still, in a class of thirty three-year-olds, there are only two teachers, as the kids started crying altogether, and the kids are three or four year olds, and are still in diapers, “How can we give the children the best kind of care in this sort of education environment?” Lin said, that normally, children who are two, two-and-a-half are no longer needing diapers, that the teachers were, put in charge of so many children, how can the instructor, potty train them all well enough.

And so, this, is what it looked like, in the preschool, pre-k years of early childhood education here, because there’s not enough teachers, and the government failed to realize, that the younger the children are, needing more attention from the adult caretakers, and the government don’t pay these early childhood educators enough, to make them stay in the working field.
