Fires in the Bathroom: Chapter 8

A part that stuck out to me in this chapter was about how students who speak English as a second language don't just want to "comprehend what a teacher says" and that's the whole class, they want to learn, in more depth, about the class topics.

I thought the whole chapter was pretty interesting because at my high school we had ESL students through foreign exchange but all of their English seemed really good, so it was interesting to read about what it's like for some of them. This particular part, however, because it does seem like teachers forget sometimes that they're not just there to try and scrape through a course, they're there to learn as well, so basically doing their test for them isn't helping.
