I AM observing the current public criticism thrown at the DidikTV teacher who conducted a science lesson on the reproductive system. As a science communicator and advocate, I think we have all gone off tangent on this issue.
The flaw was not her proficiency in English. We do not need Queen’s English to teach Math and Science or any other subject or even to secure a job and excel in it. Having said this, any medium of instruction has to be devoid of misinterpretation and be easily comprehensible. My disappointment stems from the way the lesson was conducted, the involvement of the teacher, her enthusiasm and presentation style and even content and accuracy.
