ENGLISH FORUM HOME LOUNGE | REFRESHING FOR THE BETTER YOU!
Salutation fellas! 
It is wonderful in EFor if we can establish a tradition where our Lounge collapse just in the same time as the new year or so, say an annual collapse. Within the new year approaches, we expect the better of ourselves. I truly hope that this Lounge can reflect the change that we'd all like to obtain for our future.
Without further ado, here's EFor new Lounge for this year and of course in the hope for better you!
You can change but home stays all the same!
I would like to emphasize that you may post whatever needs posted here as long as:
- YOU USE ENGLISH HERE. THIS FORUM IS NOT NAMED ENGLISH FORUM FOR NO REASONS. The point is to practice English here, so do it. Don't hesitate since everyone has their own level of fluency
- YOU RESPECT FELLOW EFORS. It is somehow a habit for Indonesian people to use English profanities when they know some. You think you look cool? Not at all. The use of extreme profanities is strictly forbidden here in EFor. SAME GOES TO SARA!
- YOU DO NOT JUNK EXCESSIVELY. Please no more than 3 posts in a row. I know I have loosened up the rule in Lounge a bit. But, that does not necessarily mean I would like to proliferate junks here. Post duly.
- LAST BUT NOT LEAST. YOU ENJOY IT LIKE A HOME OF YOURS

I started with TK an SD kids - Teaching was easy as I always assumed they could do far more than the text books aimed for - that positive attitude rubbing off onto the kids so they assumed they could do it as well.
They went on to amaze me, then amaze the school, then amaze their parents.
26 adjectives in one sentence by half way through grade 1
Introduced Shakespeare by grade 2
Actively studying Shakespeare's sonnets in grade 5
Philosophy in grade 6
ALL in English - It's easy once you realise kids are fantastic AND treat them that way. The kids, just by way of a note, were all (except a very few) pure Indonesian from Indonesian families living their whole lives in Indonesia.
The Indonesian government is going a little wrong with SD education - Indonesian kids can easily handle two or three languages from a very young age, but you have to assume they can, not assume they can't as is the case at the moment in state schools.
It would take about 18 years to sort out, but I could, given the right powers, make Indonesia a country full of high quality English speaking graduates, all also speaking perfect Indonesian and many/most, a local language as well.
Three languages for young kids is easy, but it's hard work once they get to SMP.
