What exactly is the person in the role as teacher allowed to do as far as classroom discipline is concerned. Does a difference exist based on gender discrimination, and if so, please elaborate as much as possible. If you have experience abroad, please describe, to the best of your ability, what you have witnessed first-hand or what you have learned from a secondary source. What advice would you offer foreign students planning on studying in your home country?

Hello.
I think that the reaction that has the teacher is incorrect, dispite that the teacher does not have a specific method to use and control the students in the school.
I believe that this contry is crazy. Once, I saw a reaction like this in my high school, but my teacher trough the eraser and did not hit the student so as shown in the video. When the people grow up in this kind of environment, the people learn those actions.
And I think, people teach in the same way that they learned in the past.

hello.
I think this video was so funny beacause i hand never seen one. And this methot isn´t good because it is´nt a good way of teaching because with this methot the are teaching children to be agressive with thier future childrenpunctuation don´t you think the same?
So with this i can say that this country is crazy, so what peeople disaprove this punishment was a good idea so that´s my opinion.

Well I think that this video was so funny because the raction of the teacher was so agressivepunctuation but at same timepunctuation i’ts a bad way to teaching because the teacher hit the student so hard and i think that is not a good way to teach, the only think that he do is get indefinite article bad reputation and in some cultures pronoun needed is a good way to tell you “Don’t do that” but in other cultures it’s a bad waypunctuation they should send to the directorpunctuation this must be the best way.

I think than the video was funny, but I think than that is not a good method when a person is teaching because the students learn to be agressive persons.
I think than if there this is permitted is because that is a crazy country, they should find other ways to disiplin to the students, maybe talking or with indefinite article little punishment.

I think that the video was funny, I have never seen something like that.
The way that the teachers keep the discipline in the classrooms has changed over time, and depends of the country and the culture.
I think that the methods that were used, didn´t have a really good results, they didn´t make that the children respect them, all that they got was made childrens afraid about their.
Nowdays the children don´t accept that someone that you don´t know and don´t have anything to be with you hit you. And thats really clear.
I think that the better thing for to keep a better relationship between teachers and students is the comunication without use the violence and the aggressiveness.
You can find a lot of ways to disiplin a group and that´s better.
