High school English teachers stop teaching grammar to their students. They expect students to have zero percent of grammar errors in their essays. As a result, students have a lot of grammar errors in their essays. Even though some English teachers get irritated and mad about grammar errors, they still do not spare some time to teach grammar to the students. Students also get mad that some English teachers are strict about grammar. They wonder why they will still grade their grammar even though their English teachers will not teach it.

Even though the curriculum focuses on analysis only, standardized tests still require students to know their grammar. Students struggle on the grammar section. They wish that their English teachers focus on grammar more than analysis. Some students cannot afford a tutor and have to rely on their teachers to ace the standardized tests. In some foreign countries, students learn English grammar, especially during high school. When they take the standardized tests, they perform well on the grammar section. Not all standardized tests require students to analyze texts, which makes high school English look like a waste of their education.

After they leave their English classes, students realize that they have to use grammar every day instead of analysis. Jobs and internships expect students to have zero percent of grammar errors on their résumés and cover letters. Grammar errors are one of the reasons why jobs and internships reject applicants. Students use Grammarly to make sure that they do not have any grammar errors on their résumés and cover letters. Some students do not know that Grammarly exists and cannot correct their grammar. From this, the English curriculum has left the students unprepared for the real world even though it has been created to prepare them for the real world.
