A propos du livre

Biographie de l'auteur

Alex C. Ihenetu, a United States citizen, migrated several years ago from the Ibo tribe of Eastern Nigeria and lives with his family in the United States. He holds a BS in chemistry from Boston State College, a BS in pharmacy from Massachusetts College of Pharmacy and an MBA from Bryant College in North Smithfield, Rhode Island. He is a full-time staff pharmacist practicing in Boston, Massachusetts. He is an avid sports fan and loves to read and write poetry. He believes that the average college curriculum is so rich and rigorous in liberal arts education that a college graduate is equipped with enough English grammar skills to be proficient in the language. This may not always be the case. Alex has therefore chosen to address this issue in this book that reminds him of his high school English teacher and the teacher's style of correction of English grammar papers. During Alex's days in high school, English language proficiency was so important that without a pass in the subject, one could not qualify for a high school certificate from the Local Examinations Syndicate even if one scored (A)lphas in all other subjects, including vernacular languages. Reflecting on such colonial mentality and policy these days, however, Alex sees some injustice having been done to the vernacular culture of colonized nations despite the fact that a good foundation in English Language was helpful to their success in acquiring advanced western education.
