Nowadays going to a tutorial class after school is a must for Hong Kong students especially to those who are taking open exams in the coming year. Students & their parents believe that going to regular school alone is not enable them to achieve good grades, and going to tutorial class can somehow empower them and turn them from a C to a A student. There are always rumors about some tutors somehow obtain some of the questions which will be on the open exam, and students will go burn their parents hard earned money on the tutor. When I think about it, those brand name tutorial schools are like the famous brothels and those high salaried tutors are like the biggest ho's in town. Students pay certain amount of money, go to the classes and sit for awhile while the tutors entertain you and give you what you need. Isn't that great?
Despite the effectiveness of going to tutorial classes, one thing that bothers me the most is how people see the teachers nowadays. In my opinion, teachers are always highly underrated. Teachers never get the respect they deserve; on the other hand, tutors are protrayed as God. Just looking at the billboards and the advertising for tutors in Hong Kong, and I am disgusted by every single one of them. What the fuck happened to Hong Kong educations? What the fuck is wrong with this generation? It's not hard to imagine if you ask a kid what does he want to be when he grows up, some of them will go "I want to be a tutor cos I want to be a millionaire and have the respect that I don't deserve."
