To the Editor:
Mr. DiSimoni wrote about the lack of accountability of our educators in the public school system (Letters, April 8).
Doesn’t he realize they are highly skilled educators ( that is pronounced edge-uh-kay-turs). They teach kids to correctly pronounce the names of the months (Jan-u-wary, Feb-u-wary, etc.), universities (Nor-tur Dame), etc.
The results are to be heard on television and radio.
What I can’t understand is why do our large corporations continually hire engineers, mathematicians and scientists from countries that do not have a good school system like we do?
They don’t even know the correct pro-nun-see-a-shun of our words.
