society changes, trends repeat themselves throughout time. This same theory applies to the Reformation in England and the formation of the then newly established Church of England. No matter the circumstances, England’s reform was bound to happen. The English reform assisted in the creation of The Church of England, which follows the Christian faith.

As foreigners, English is the second language for most international students, which we learned five times a week yet only focus on doing grammar practice and eventually lead to the so-called “Mute English”.
