Welcome to Japan.
When the kids commit a crime, they certainly go all the way here...
Jackebear I know how you feel. I have also taught at a junior high school in Tokyo although it was considered a good school and so they were better behaved. You're absolutely right about teaching 35-40 kids, most of them couldn't give a shit about learning English.
English here is just for decoration purposes: advertising, fashion, movies & music etc. Nobody really uses it, but it makes them feel that they are an "international" or cosmopolitan country.
I can't stand teaching English any more, will never go back to that if I can help it...
