Hi,
True, they are paid. But they are being paid a lot more in their
industrial projects and researches which they earn by commissions.
And each lecturer has to produce 5 journals each year, otherwise
kenna kick out. So they are actually not very free to tok to
undergrads. Hence I really appreciate their effort cos I am that
kind of person who bo liao bo liao go see lecturer one. I even go
to their office to chit chat !
And frankly, they are already very helpful. In UK, *sigh*, wait
long long. Undergrads are NOTHING to them, not interested ah! Only
a few good ones will help you. But most of the time, they leave you
to die. Their notes also ! Alamak ! I thot NUS worse enuff liao
!
The tutors are better cos they are younger, understand our problems
and they need our appraisals to promote *hehe* Also, they dun have
"outside" assignments. Hence tutoring is their "full-time"
job.
Me from Mechanical and Production Engineering. U ?
Just one thing to add ... 30 years ago, when we wanted to make
Changi Airport World Class, people were laughing ...
Why can't we make NUS world class ?
