With foreign accents its often hard to understand what's being said, and harder when there's a whole class and the student doesnt want to be disruptive.

I don’t find it hard to understand foreign accents of all kinds. Why do you? It seems like a basic part of English comprehension. Obviously large companies don’t have issues with their CEOs being Indians with accents. They’re speaking to their employees, board, and the public and it’s not an issue.

You are being bigoted or ignorant again. There is a whole meme of people with Indian accents, explaining things on YouTube, and Americans genuinely appreciating their lessons because American teachers with perfect English like yours have failed to explain the subject properly

There's also a huge group of people that instantly click away from a video as soon as they hear an indian voice. They won't show up in the comments.

Again? I'm not the parent commentor.
I find it harder to learn if I have to decipher the words not the content. This is true for lots of different accents. This is a common experience for those not overindexing on ethnonarcissism.
