In my Chinese "School" you are punished for being stupid. In other words, you get more than 3 words incorrect and the teacher will hit your hand with a wooden ruler. It's a test we take every week which is basically just memorizing a sentence and write it down. It's 3 hours long from 9 AM to 12 AM and it costs $70 a month, which means 9 hours = $70. At the end of the class, you take ANOTHER test which is basically writing down words you've learned before. I would quit at the 1st moment possible if my mom wasn't such an asshole about it.
