Would you correct my esay?

The problem is that the man’s teacher from some country in Asia has the worst accent in the world. The woman suggests that the man talks to the teacher about it. Another option is that the man brings a tape recorder to class so that he can listen to it over again. I think that he should bring a tape recorder to class. The reason is that if the man doesn’t want her to get angry, he should ask the teacher if the man can bring one to class or not. However, if it is not allowed to bring one, he should talk to the teacher about his worst accent honestly.
