Why Italian students are often unable to speak English.
I've been thinking of this for months and I've been realizing what the problems of Italian schooling system is as concerns the teaching of English:
1) In Italy, plurilinguism is rare and it is considered abnormal.
2)Italian students are forced to study English literature. It is important to understand the importance of this language but it is often not understandable to many.
3) Teachers don't let students make mistakes slowing their process of learning and upsetting them.
4) Consequently, we don't pratice our speaking skills and our lessons are mainly based on translating texts.
5) Governments have been recently concerned about this problem but their initiatives have been pointless.
6) Every year, many associations propose weekly/monthly journey in England, or English-speaking country, but these travels are often expensive and aren't useful because since they involve only Italian students, they don't tend to speak English, but they just have fun with their peers.
I'm an Italian student currently attending the last year of High School and I'm really frustrated. I'm trying to get better and better every day but this schooling system and this closeminded society is letting me down. That's why I'm thinking of living abroad after I graduate.
Sorry for my mistakes but I just wanted to express my disappointment.
Have a good day :)
