Cheers! I can understand your feeling and your efforts because I had similar experience at work. It's very hard to get through but if you do, you definitely will be proud of yourself.

I don't believe this is a true story. Or, please do improve your English,
there're a lot errors in the quotes from the "native students" in your class. University students would not make those mistakes.

the wrong side of the extreme opinionAll these that we often heard before in China were proved wrong:
1. GRE vocabularies are rarely used in daily lives in North America.
2. All local students do not study hard, they party 24x7
3. Westerners cannot speak English, they do not care of gramma
I don't know where you get that opinion, but think about it, they may not be perfect on gramma but average educated people definitely can practise gramma better than you and I can. Come on It's their first language.

Criticizing others is easier than doing it well yourself. You can be a good teacher without perfect English. There are quite a few grammatical errors in your two short postings. Be tolerant and modest.

A few examples-a lot (of) errors, all these (those) that we often heard, daily lives (life), they do not care of (about) gramma(grammar), practise gramma(use grammar), in my post (posts) , close the difference(gap)... I do believe that we canhave better English than locals.

Supernova, do you agree that there are some errors/mistakes in your three postings?

I must admit the absolute majority of native English-speakers have better English than us. But they still can not avoid not making any mistakes in grammar.
