It's a worry, but of course it's probably not her fault but that of the system
that provided her with an education.
My wife, who works with people of several different natinalities at the RSPB,
finds that the foreigners often write (and sometimes speak) better English than
her colleagues for whom English is their first language.
Eeek! (intentionally slang expression of anxiety, Chuck :-))
