Got a degree in education - many teachers K-12 don’t understand the English language....they say things like, “And when he got there, do you know what he seen”....
Helps to learn Latin, but translating any language is a great exercise to learn how to write. As a rule they don’t they teach Latin in public schools. Best time is grade school and middle school (not high school) and that’s what a lot of the private schools are doing.
