Usually, we claim that ours is a failing system simply because our students have a decreasing efficiency in communication especially when we use the English language. Often we hear that our youth are generally, no longer as good in spoken and written English as their forebears. Differently stated, we sweepingly conclude that our education has deteriorated by our faulty English composition.
