Is it normal it annoys me that foreigners skip speech training?

  • Accent =/= speech impediment... "what's the point of giving children speech training?" so that they can speak their native tongue properly..? I mean, maybe other languages do have speech training for those who have problems speaking their own language like you did. Have you ever tried to speak another language..? Maybe if you did, then you could appreciate the difficulty these "foreigners" are having... it really depends what you mean by "speak terribly". As long as all the words are there, I don't really see a problem... you just have to listen more closely.

    • Like I said a slight accent not an issue. If you can not speak well enough to explain something to your patient you should not be allowed to work there. They make everyone else speak properly they to should be held up to that same standard. I mean HEAVY accent not light accent.

      • So did I. it doesn't matter how heavy the accent, the same still applies. they do not allow people to work in high positions if they do not understand what they're doing. You just can't understand what they're saying because you are too impatient

        • Yes and if they can not explain to a patient you think that is a good thing? That is kind of needed. If you did not realize that yet. You think people should not know what a doctor is going to do, or what is wrong with them, or what they can and cant do before a procedure? You really don't understand how this type of thing works? A patient needs to be able to understand these things and most want to be told whats going on with them.
