Teachers focus on grammar and basic vocabulary, not giving time to the most important aim of learning a foreign language, communication. Interest in learning After fourteen years of learning English in the school there are just a few who can say they speak the language. They are those who had a special interest and attended a language school at the time. If not, you know (almost) nothing.
