Like I said, I attribute it to both. Local control for local community standards is the right way to go, in my humble internet opinion. Test the basic knowledge, critical skills, but put the local community standards in place. I know that flies in the face of our ‘globalized economy’, but my guess is most people don’t like being lied to, want to trust someone who gives them their word, doesn’t like to be stolen from, beat up, attacked, called names, want to help their neighbors, or be helped by their neighbors.
If so, the "teacher" needs to find immediate employment elsewhere. As in now. Bu-Bye Hussain. Stop ignoring your students.
