    I arrived in the classroom, ready to share my knowledge and experience with 75 students who would be my English Literature class．Having taught in  1for 17 years, I had no  2about my ability to hold their attention and to  3on them my admiration for the literature of my mother tongue．

    I was shocked when the monitor shouted, “  4!”

    The entire class rose as I entered the room, and I was somewhat  5about how to get them to sit down again, but once that awkwardness was over, I quickly  6my calmness and began what I thought was a fact-packed lecture, sure to gain their respect --- perhaps  7their admiration．I went back to my office with the rosy glow which comes from a sense of achievement．

    My students  8diaries．However, as I read them, the rosy glow was gradually  9by a strong sense of sadness．The first diary said, “Our literature teacher didn’t teach us anything today． 10her next lecture will be better．” Greatly surprised, I read diary after diary, each expressing a  11theme．“Didn’t I teach them anything? I described the entire philosophical framework of Western thought and laid the historical  12for all the works we will study in class,” I complained．“How  13they say I didn’t teach them anything?”

    It was a long term, and it  14became clear that my ideas about education were not the same as  15of my students．I thought a teacher’s job was to raise     16questions and provide enough background so that students could  17their own conclusions．My students thought a teacher’s job was to provide  18information as directly and clearly as possible．What a difference!

19, I also learned a lot, and my experience with my Chinese students has made me a  20American teacher, knowing how to teach in a different culture．
