[edit] Controversies
K. Oten, 'Star tutor' 「星級名師」 in English, lost credibility in 2006 when he was exposed by East Week as having falsified his credentials: he claimed to have scored a distinction when he in fact scored a 'D' on his first attempt at HKCEE. In addition, he has been mocked for his poor pronunciation: clips of him speaking English have been posted all over Youtube[1]
In May 2008, the Independent Commission Against Corruption of Hong Kong stepped in to investigate allegations of buying of HKCEE examination papers, and that K. Oten had sent out an analysis the current year's paper to examination candidates by text message during the exam. His employers immediately distanced themselves, saying he had been terminated[1]
