Students get nothing from 7-years of English learning at general school

After spending a lot of time and exertion to learn English at general schools, students still cannot obtain four basic skills of listening, speaking, reading and writing. Students can read, but cannot understand.

Pham Thanh Tam, Headmaster of the Hong Duc High School in Binh Thanh district in HCM City, said that many times he examined the English skills of 12th graders to prepare them for the final exams, and found out that their skills are too bad.
