How is comp taught?: A teacher becomes fed up with writing like that. He
doesnt see that most of the signals in the school are telling students to write
Engfish. Even the textbook begins with an Engfish sentence, and surely it
should be a model of writing for students. Its first sentence is: If you are a
student who desires assistance in order to write effectively and fluently, then
this textbook is written for yo. P3
o Students thoroughly trained in Engfish are hard to put to find their
natural voices in the classroom. They have left them out in the hall.
Much earlier in life, though, they occasionally have written sharply and
truly. P3
Composition is often taught unsuccessfully through the form in
which is is taught in the classroom by educators. It becomes
unnatural fake. Teachers begin to hear what students believe
they want to hear, following the example of textbooks assigned
to them. Composition can still be taught successfully if void of
the artificiality often accompanied by English literature/teaching
practices/norms.
