3. Interview with teacher Mr. Petráš What did the buisness academy look like in the past? In the past the school had no fence or trees. And also there was no gym. How many students and teachers were there in the first years of school? At first this school had only two classes with 40 students. A lot of them came from a school in Žilina. There were only 8 teachers. Were students better in the past than at present? In the past students were more disciplined and they had more respect to the teachers. Nowadays, they have more self-confidence. How many years have you been teaching? I´ve been teaching for 32 years. What is the biggest change at our school in your opinion? I think that the biggest change for the school was the gym, which was build in 1977. It was very important, because before students had had to walk one hour to the town and back, where was a gym next to Hypernova. What do you want to change? There are a lot of things that I would like to change. I think that teachers are servants of students. Teachers should help students to make their studies easier. Why is our school better than other business academies? We have language, sports, computer classes. Our technology is modern. We are at the top. Do you like this work? Have you ever wanted to change? I like this work because I feel good in a classroom. I could travel but I stayed here.I´m sure that it was a good decision.
