By Amy Chavez

Summary:

Philippines has been recorded as a country that concern on its English education. For instance, Philippines has put English as its official language beside Filipino language. As a result, it has been validly reported by Educational Testing Service (ETS) that the Philippines ranked 35^th out of 163 countries across the world. What is actually so good with the Philippines system in English education? In its course of history, Philippines was imposed to the colonial of the U.S in 1898-1946. Through this, Philippines take English legacy into serious account so that it is implemented not only in English education but more emphasises on daily routines. Thus, this is the point, giving more exposures to English outside the classroom and making English as a real life experience have been passionately applied in Philippines. So, it is true what was stated by Amy Chavez, the writer of this article, that he was impressed seeing people of Philippines fluently speak English even never stepping outside the Philippines itself.
