Where's "here" for you, because that's CERTAINLY not my experience. I
vividly remember detesting English class. :-) Of course, it was
largely rote learning of what subjects and stuff were, and being
constantly told that the way we normally spoke was wrong, that in itself
made me detest it, I didn't like being told how to talk.
