What existing in our country is the method being used by the Englishmen to learn English as their mother tongue. That method is not applicable at all for the Sinhala race who learns English as a second language.
Even though English is taught for about 10 years at school, for about 4 years at university
and then some more years, this inapplicability is the matter why most of them in our country have been unable to get a sufficient English knowledge.
