However, the author recommends that we should try to reform it again, because the environments have changed. The author proposes 7 strategies for the reform. They are : 1. Kuruthayat Project: to select smart people to study teacher education, 2. Choose only Ph.D. teachers: to strengthen teacher education institutions, 3. Not more than 30 students: a small classroom for teachers to practice their profession, 4. Open a student’s mouth and close a teacher’s: give up lecturing, 5. Set a high hope: standard criteria for the quality of teaching profession, 6. Tom Yam Kung-ization Model: research in accordance with the social context, 7. Pay no attention even to the minister: immensely devoted to students. Details and comments are also providedin the paper..
