Koreans, from what I can tell, are culturally somewhat different than kids here. For instance, they can sit still, listen, and shut up. My classes are comprised mostly of Latinos, some born here, some immigrants... and they are like puppies on acid.

Make that rude little fiends on acid and I would agree. AP kids vs. ESL kids are night and day.

Yes, I’ve covered a few AP classes and I’m always blown away by how HUMAN they seem compared to what I’m accustomed to. Don’t get me wrong, in every class I have at least 4 or 5 kids that are gems. But the other 27 are somewhere on the stupid-to-evil continuum, and it’s nonsense to claim that 27 little monsters are no harder to handle than 17.
