	That is not true because English is not such a dominant force in world affairs

		Pedro Miranda is a very diligent young teacher. He has been teaching English for two years and uses institutionalized English language learning based on culture-specific prescriptive norms. You can say

	he is right because students must recognize from the beginning of their studies  there is a superior culture than theirs.
