What is the most important thing that students expect from their teachers? Teachers are often ineffective because they do not understand their students. When teachers and students operate at different frequencies, both get frustrated and unproductivity sets in. Good teachers know what students expect and work sincerely to fulfill students' needs. They deliberately engage in activities that would build and strengthen their students' potential. However, many times, communication between them are closed and teachers have no way of knowing what students 'really' expect from them. An open communication will help prevent this ill-practice at schools.

What are the other ways to educate students? In my country (Taiwan), teachers were allowed to hit students as a punishment. They were also allowed to give any other pysical punishments,and were allowed to insult and humiliate students. But not anymore, now there are laws against pysical punishments and insulting students. And this make the students much more disrespectful toward the teachers, they curse and slap the teachers, but the teachers can't call the cops either (for the sake of the child's future). This is a problem, becasue there are many students whose parents are too busy at work and have no time to educate or discipline their kids. And those kids in school are a nightmare! They threaten other kids, slap teachers...... etc. and if you expel them from the school, all they have to do is to build another gang in their new school. There are simply no punishments that can make them behave! Can anyone think of any other ways that teachers can make those students behave?

How old are students when they enter and finish higher education in Egypt? In America, students start at 18 and finish at 22 typically, but I heard that Egyptian students (like Zarqawi) can be in med school at 17, which would mean that higher education in Egypt is like secondary education in the free world. Is this true? In America, students start college (higher education) at 18 and finish at 22 typically, but I heard that Egyptian students (like Zarqawi) can be in medical school, or other graduate studies at 17, which would mean that higher education in Egypt is more like secondary education in the free world than higher education, since high school (secondary education) ends at 18 in the US. This website: http://www.gse.buffalo.edu/org/IntHigherEdFinance/Egypt.pdf says that college in Egypt lasts from age 14 to 17. Is that true, or does it work differently? I also read that in Egypt they devote much of their education to Koranic studies but they don't study science, history, government, or psychology, since the truth in these areas of study largely conflict with what the Koran says. I know they study math and language because the Egyptian grad students I know speak fairly well and must have performed adequately on their GREs, but they have obviously never studied history, science, or psych.

How can I find volunteers to host exchange students in their home? Two other partners and I started a small, non-profit exchange student program a couple of years ago called Peace4Kids (www.peace4kids.net). We bring high school kids to the US to live with host families and go to public schools. We mostly place students in the greater El Paso, TX area, but also have some placed in Arkansas, California and Ohio.
