Jeremy Brown - a British school teacher, who is attempting to teach English to a class of mixed nationality students.
An Episode started with a conversation between Mr. Brown and Miss Courtney (principal of the college). She was quite surprised, when she saw him, as she expected for a woman teacher, by the reason that the previous man teacher - Mr. Warburton - was departed, and Miss Courtney just decided that it is typical for a man not to have any patience. Brown proved that he was well qualified for this job and she wouldn't have any problems with him.
From the first class Mr. Brown was faced with lot of misunderstanding of the words and phrases he is trying to teach. During all the episode he keeps putting himself in a huge amount of funniest situations ever. Some of the students don't speak any English, as for example, Juan Cervantes - a Spanish bartender - he understands nothing from all the things the teacher said. All the time he is using Spanish word "por favor" (please). Another good example - JamilaRanjha - an Indian housewife. Knitting is all what she is doing during the class.
At the beginning of the first class Mr. Brown asked all the students to introduce themselves: say the name, occupation and country of origin. Giovanni Cupello - an Italian macho, said that he is working as a "cookada" (the way how he described his chef position at the Italian restaurant). Ranjeet Singh said: "I am a very important member of the British underground”, (means he is working at the Metro). Ali Nadim - an unemployed Pakistani Muslim answered: " I am working at the moment not anywhere at all", and added: "Only one day a week I am working. I am going to the unemployment exchange to be collecting my money. I get more money for not be working than then I am working".
Students fight with each other by the any small reason: Maximillian Papandrious - typical Greek. He is attracted to Danielle (a "French beauty", as Miss Courtney described her for the first time ) and, because of this, has many fights with Giovanni Cupello, who's also trying to win a "French beauty". Ali Nadim is fighting with Ranjeet Singh for some religion reason.And Taro Nagazumi - a Japanese electronics representative, who's extremely proud of his country, can not missed a chance and remind to Chung Su-Lee - a secretary at the Chinese Embassy, that Japan is the greatest country and only there the best cameras in the world.
So, when Miss Courtney met exhausted Brown after the class she said: "Job getting you down already?". Brown answered: "No, no I'm fine! Never felt better". And added: "That window you nailed down! The one Mr. Warburton climbed out of.. I think I ought to put a few more nails in it, just to be on the safe side". ...
