It is a well accepted fact that ALL education institutions teach students to accumulate or assimilate knowledge to FIND A JOB.
The good news is that Indians are very adept at learning languages – first we have our mother tongue, then a second language of the state our children study, then our second language and finally English – the medium of business worldwide, as also to secure a job.

Kishore does a fine job in explaining the nuances of meaning and usage of the English language!
