"나쁜 학생을 가르치는 것이 재미없어요."

Translation: Teaching bad students is not fun.

[MadisonBou2]

"Teaching a bad student is not fun" should also be acceptable, since 학생을 does not explicitly indicate the number of students.

[LastSeong]

this is true but often in korean the plural form is not used. in this case 학생 probably refers to students in general.

[CascataNerina]

I agree, wouldn't "students" be "학생들을" ?

[GiovanniSantucci]

"students" could be 학생들(을) or just 학생(을) because Korean doesn't have a grammatical singular and the absence of 들 usually doesn't make something singular, but simply leaves number unspecified.

@MadisonBou2, now the program accepts, "Teaching a bad student is not interesting."
I typed, "It is not fun to teach a bad student." It was marked wrong. July 16, 2019

[KookieBTSARMY101]

This is what I hear everyday when my mom gets back from school... :(

[SyedAkthar]

Oh. BTS fans are here.

[Megan339365]

I agree with Madison. Where is the plural particle?

[ThomasNeed]

Yes, why is it still not accepting "bad student"? Please fix it or explain why we are wrong.

I like how the word bank also gave me the option of "Sleeping with bad students is not fun." What in the Mary J. Letourneau is going on here, Duolingo?
