    English is a waste of life.

    tbh, the way shakespearean theatre was done was pretty boring. it was very proclaimitory. not much physical action. but then again, directors didnt exist at that time. and the cast pretty much never saw each other between casting and opening night. because it is too hard to do interviews...

    my sister also studied law. and her teachers were horrible at english. and she still cannot write grammatically correct. i think that might be important. yeah sure, you can get through life without any schooling. but there are educated norms of vocabulary, logic and general intelligence. last...

    English is a waste of life.

    it teaches you to express yourself well and analyse appropriate to context. i think it might be. maths is also vital, not only in its pure form, but in honing problem solving skills. english is compulsory to be counted towards your UAI because it uses skills that are applicable to all...

    English is a waste of life.

    it actually does. its there to teach you the skills to see the purpose behind things. most of the modules are on fictional texts, but those skills (if learnt properly) translate to advertising and other media. i mean, look at today tonight - thats pure hyperbole. look at the news - thats...

    the QCE (queensland certificate of education) has one level of english for those intending on tertiary study. this is very society based - youth representation in media etc. there is an extension course which does critical analysis of texts etc, but it is not compulsory.
