Education has always been in the news for one reason or another.
So many issues brought up that it is not possible to go into all the diverse demands.
However, I believe there is one issue that requires attention, the question as to whether English should be formally established as the national language.
My answer is yes.
English is perhaps the most important subject that is taught. However, it receives no more time than that devoted to any other subject. That is the fallacy. Twice as much time should be devoted to teaching English.
The more knowledgeable a person is in the language, the more easily they will understand any other subject, and the more proficient they will be in communication.
It is said that the reason there are so many acts of violence is because people lack the oral communication skills to resolve conflict, so they resort to physical expression.
